an AI resume screener had been trained on CVs of employees already at the firm, giving people extra marks if they listed “baseball” or “basketball” – hobbies that were linked to more successful staff, often men. Those who mentioned “softball” – typically women – were downgraded.
Marginalised groups often “fall through the cracks, because they have different hobbies, they went to different schools”
I’m no expert but in my experience most CVs follow the following format: personal info (name, contact info, etc), studies, past jobs, skills, extras (hobbies and such)
Unless you are freshly graduated, job experience should go before education. It’s the most relevant info.
Right fair. They’re usually sorted by date. Some do it ascending others do it descending
