Fred Harteis News Articles- Your Biggest Resume Blunders

Fred Harteis News - You formatted your resume ingeniously. You bolded your name and sized it just enough so it will stand out from the masses. You've proofread, spell-checked and edited it to death. You've even included creative (and of course, vital) information about why you're the best candidate for the job -- but have you gone too far?

In a recent CareerBuilder.com survey, hiring managers and human resource professionals across the nation shared the most unusual resume blunders they've come across in their careers. Top slip-ups from the survey included:

- Applicant included a picture of herself in a cheerleading uniform.

- Applicant used pale blue paper with teddy bears printed around the border.

- Applicant attached a letter from her mother.

- Applicant specified that his availability was limited because Friday, Saturday and Sunday was "drinking time."

- Applicant explained that he works well nude.

Fred Harteis News Article - Grad salary offers on the rise

Fred Harteis News Articles - This year it really pays to have a college degree.

Salary offers made to soon-to-be college graduates are on the rise in just about every field, according to a quarterly survey of 81 schools published this week by the National Association of Colleges & Employers' (NACE).

This year engineering majors were once again some of the most handsomely compensated, according to NACE. Chemical engineers topped the list with the average offer climbing 5.6 percent over the past year to $59,707. Civil and mechanical engineering majors saw job offers climb by roughly 5 percent or more.

Marketing majors, by far, experienced the biggest jump in salary. Over the past year, offers climbed 10.3 percent, on average, to $41,285.

Accounting majors, while one of the mostly highly sought after students by employers on college campuses, only saw their starting salaries climb just 2.7 percent to $47,421.

Offers made to computer science grads, which fell in the 2005-2006 school year, have rallied this year, climbing 2.5 percent to $52,177.

Salaries for liberal arts majors appear to be holding steady. Based on early numbers, the salary offers for liberal arts majors were up 1.2 percent from last spring to $31,333, but below the pace of inflation.

So far this year, the job market has looked pretty promising for the 1.5 million college seniors set to graduate this year, despite recent signs of weakness in the larger labor market.

In fact, NACE estimated last fall that employers will hire 17.4 percent more graduates this year than they did in 2005-2006.

And that trend appears to be showing up on college campuses nationwide.

“The starting point of great success and achievement has always been the same. It is for you to dream big dreams.
