    Why would you expect them to bother reading a handwritten resume?

    Sending a handwritten resume tells them that you haven’t mastered the most basic skills they’d expect from an employee.

      Sorry for the misunderstanding, I used “handwritten” but I really meant “handcrafted”. This means personalized cover letter, customized resume with keywords, and no AI assistance.

      All typed, of course, not handwritten.

      I also submitted thousands of AI-generated resumes, but I don’t really count those, they are slop.

      I assume they meant that they composed the resume themselves vs a chatbot spit it out for them
