I see resumes all of the time and it truly cracks me up to see a job seeker who uses a thesaurus to find "keywords" and ends up using the word in the wrong context. Or they try to use keywords from a job posting without having any idea what they mean! If you are job seeking, you should always try to run your resume by and impartial person!

While having key words on the resume is important, it is equally important to keep them in check- don't put them on your resume just to have them. Use them if they are true!

But, that's a great idea! It's such a simple change we can all make to create more noticeable resumes-- a real example of the power of small-- and a change that these days, we really can't ignore.
