Resume Hide List For Free

This is done by repeatedly typing a keyword into the resume then making the text white so that it's invisible to human eyes. For example, an applicant might type accounting accounting accounting accounting at the bottom of their resume. The idea is that it will help them rank higher in an ATS.

Can you leave a job off your resume? Yes you can. Resumes are flexible and should be considered as summaries of your most relevant experience, qualifications, and skills.

A common trick is to include a keyword several times in a row, but change the text color to white so it is hidden. However, when keywords are highlighted on the hiring manager's end, the white text will stick out like a sore thumb (see screenshot below).

White fonting is not only questionable from an ethical standpoint, but almost never works. Some ATS systems can't read white font. Others are so sophisticated that they pull resumes that have hidden text and eliminate those candidates.

Yes, you can leave off jobs from your resume if they don't relate to the job you are applying for, no problem. Employment checks are to verify the places you tell them you worked at.

Avoid overuse phrases or words that have lost their meaning, like "hard worker," "motivated," "go-getter," or "people person," or "team player." They won't help you stand out from other applicants. Also try to avoid business school jargon, things like "synergy," "results oriented," "best of breed," or "wheelhouse."
