As we already know, resumes are comparable to a sales tool used by applicants to sell their selves to a certain job. This is also like an advertising tool for employers to buy them or like them for a certain job. But in some cases, employers should be very careful with some of the resumes because they might contain some icing on the cake information. A job applicant will never understate his or her job descriptions and responsibilities. But rather, an applicant may even overstate it that it will already be far from the fact. They may overstate those descriptions, responsibilities, salary, or accomplishments. These seem to be fluffs but it is understandable. What we are eliminating here is the superfluff information. These are the personal details in a resume that are overstated and sometimes exaggerated.

In order to avoid hiring a fluffy person, you have to be careful in evaluating the resume before even conducting the next step of screening.

There is a powerful strategy in pre-screening the job candidates in a certain company just by using the resume of the candidates. First, you have to accept their resumes and then study it before you let them complete the application. Keeping their dates straight is a difficulty that is being undergone by most applicants who have intentions in fudging periods of employment.

Take the opportunity to observe the applicants while they are filling out the application. See if they are referring to their resumes or if they are referring to another piece of paper which contains a different material. These other materials that they are referring when they are filling out the application papers other than their resumes are sometimes called cheat sheets. These cheat sheets are often made by them to help them keep the periods of employment consistent with the resume and the employment application. You have to take note of this.
