While most aspirants are still trying to figure out the magic number to get on their GRE/GMAT or debating over how important the Essays are compared to the LORS and vice-versa, they often tend to overlook one of the most important part of their application, the RESUME. The RESUME plays the role of delivering an elevator pitch to the ad-com members, only instead of you, it is that one page document which is doing it for you, and is hence responsible for creating that all important First Impression!
Given that Ad-coms generally pourover several thousands of RESUMES, it is the bitter truth that they spend hardly a minute over your resume, adjudging your entire life’s experience—that’s right, NOT FAIR!
