How not to Overburden the HR, What You Should Remove From Your Curriculum Vitae

Remove that picture, unless it’s for a beauty pageant show.

  • Remove your Local Government Area, you are not contesting for chieftaincy title.
  • Remove that date of birth. We don’t care. Unless of course it’s an entry level role and age is a requirement. And they ask you to add your age.
  • Remove your sex! There’s a way this fuels discrimination (I will explain this one day).
  • Remove your full address and just put your community and state. Example, Sabo, Kaduna.
  • Remove that CGPA if you are not first class (), just write your class of degree; SECOND CLASS UPPER, even if you graduated with 4.4999999. REMOVE!
  • Oh my God REMOVE YOUR BVN!!!! Are you a cultist? Or are you trying to contest for CBN governorship position?
  • REMOVE funny emails like: sexybetty@gmail or handsomehorlakunle@yahoo YOU ARE NOT IN SECONDARY SCHOOL. The best emails are still your full name@gmail.com
  • Remove State of Origin, unless you are trying to work for Tinubu.
  • Lastly, REMOVE THOSE ROLES, DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES YOU COPIED AND PASTED FROM GOOGLE AND CHATGPT.
