10 BTech Fresher Resume Mistakes That Kill Your Shortlist Chances

BTech fresher resume mistakes cost shortlists silently — TPO ne forward kar diya, par ATS ya recruiter ne 8 seconds mein reject kar diya. Yeh 10 errors Indian engineering campus cycles mein sabse common hain.

1. Generic objective line

"To work in a dynamic organization..." — delete. Replace with 2-line summary + target role.

2. CGPA chhupana ya galat jagah

CGPA eligible cutoff ke upar hai toh visible rakho. Footer mein mat daba ke rakho.

3. Projects bina tech stack ke

"E-commerce website" — kaunsi stack? tumhara contribution kya tha?

4. Skills = MS Word + Internet

Recruiter roast karega. Technical skills honest + project-linked rakho.

5. 3-page fresher CV

1 page enough for 0–1 YOE. Campus placement checker use karo.

6. Canva multi-column design

ATS parse fail. Single column PDF.

7. No GitHub for CS/IT

SDE pipeline mein red flag.

8. Copy-paste same resume har company ko

Keywords tweak karo — same file mass forward mat karo.

9. Spelling + tense inconsistency

Past internships = past tense bullets.

10. Submit without second pair of eyes
