Ask HN: Is Micro-Optimizing Your Resume Worth It?

1 pointsby owenshen24over 5 years ago
Hello HN,<p>I&#x27;ve been wondering what the benefits (if any) of micro-optimizing your resume are, e.g. things like changing wording, adding strong action verbs, etc. etc.<p>Is it worth paying for some sort of professional service that does this, if friends&#x2F;colleagues have already looked over it?<p>I imagine these things work better if an actual human reads it, but I&#x27;ve also heard that a lot of hiring these days uses automated services to screen resumes. Can anyone who works in recruiting share anything about that?<p>Is it all about keywords + gaming the system now? Should I be worried about these small things?
