Service Used: Renovate

Victor is an recent law graduate with a lot of potential and a great junior track record of intense internships. Unfortunately, his resume made it difficult for private law firms to understand what a great catch he was. The top 3 issues identified with his resume included:

1) Stale, sterile voice
2) Irrelevant extracurricular activities
3) Irrelevant work experience

Voice: Like most law students, he chose a very formal writing tone which made his resume seems rather unordinary. ResumeGuru provided a more valued approach demonstrating the return on investment this young associate had to offer.

Extracurricular Activities: Young graduates often believe that adding in social activities such as basketball will make them appear more well-rounded. In fact, most employers could care less. ResumeGuru trimmed away all extraneous hobbies that didn't explicitly relate to the practice of law.

Work Experience: Since he had little relevant work experience, it seemed he tried to inflate his work experience by noting past jobs in sports coaching and accounting. ResumeGuru stripped these out to better focus the main intent of the candidate - pursuing a law career.
