Really smart how these people copied sentence of a resume from "Gallery of Best Resume".



Just get me angry how these cheaters get a job by copying a sentence. Didn't they learn from school that plagiarism is not ok?

You need to relax a little here. Every résumé is a copy of another one out there. It's perfectly acceptable to plug your information/accomplishments into a template.

No idea why you felt the need to publish so many linkedin profiles, or what you have against those people. If your résumé is written anything like your post, you may want to consider a template yourself.

I'm guessing if I looked at your resume I would find some wording I have seen before. Relax before you give yourself a heart attack.

Resumes are not really held to the same standards of plagiarism as other writings. There are set phrases that should be used, and they all look pretty much the same.

Sounds like buzz words you will find on a lot of resumes.

Um...seriously?

I've used plenty of templates as guides to rewrite my resume.

that's some pretty cliché'd jargon but i wouldn't call it plagiarism. any more than, like, "excellent writing skills" is. i wouldn't put something like that on my resume but whatever.

Appears that you didn't learn much from school either.

Many resumes borrow verbiage from others. There's nothing wrong with it as long as they actually have the skills/abilities that they've listed. Get a grip.

Pretty much used on every single corporate resume everywhere and pretty far from plagiarism. Perhaps you didn't get the job because you aren't very bright, not because you think someone else cheated.
