Can you imagine buying a car from a salesman who claims the vehicle is dependable without first doing some research on the car's handling, performance, and gas consumption? Would you hire an accountant just because he claims he is trustworthy or would you want more specific details about how she prepares taxes? Would you choose the house renovation contractor who says he is reliable without asking him questions about his time frames for getting the job done? Would you hire someone to take care of your children because she says she is conscientious or would you want to know exactly what type of activities she has done with children?
Hiring managers don't hire people who say they are reliable and
trustworthy. They hire people who can prove time and time again,
without a shadow of a doubt that they have experienced successes in
the past that make them strong candidates for similar continued
success in their organization. Before you include a list of personal
attributes on your resume, ask yourself, "Will these words really
persuade a hiring manager to interview me or are they just words?"
Then do the hard work of actually creating a resume that includes the
strong proof of success that gets candidates in the front door.
