I asked ChatGPT about CV mistakes (ChatGPT is the AI that everyone’s talking about) and this is what it had to say:
There are many errors that can occur on a CV, but some of the biggest mistakes include:
Spelling and grammatical errors. These can make your CV look unprofessional and may cause the employer to question your attention to detail and communication skills.
Incorrect information. Providing inaccurate information, such as wrong dates or job titles, can make you appear dishonest and undermine your credibility.
Lack of clarity. Your CV should clearly outline your experience, qualifications, and skills. If the information is unclear or difficult to follow, it can make it challenging for the employer to assess your suitability for the role.
Too long or too short. A CV that is too long can be overwhelming. A CV that is too short may not provide enough information about your experience and qualifications.
Inappropriate email addresses or social media profiles. Your email address and social media profiles should be professional and appropriate for the workplace. Using an unprofessional email address or having inappropriate content on your social media profiles can reflect poorly on you.
It’s important to carefully proofread and edit your CV before submitting it to potential employers. You may also consider having a friend or professional review it to catch any mistakes or areas for improvement.
