What Personals Really Look For: 10 Don'ts When Applying
// By Simone Janson
Application 2go: It's not that easy
The first impression counts - even when applying in StartUps
Typos often mean the end for applicants
Applicants: Requests for cancellations allowed
Energetic or modest?
Who likes to be criticized?
What does the application say?
- He is opinionated, overestimates himself and thus makes an unpleasant impression per se - nobody with whom one likes to work together.
- The applicant also overestimates his market value: Correcting spelling errors (or a comparable mundane activity) is not a specialized knowledge that only he masters (otherwise this may look different in the technical field). Such activities are often replaced in companies with cheap labor or even free interns.
- The applicant shows that he has no idea about the operating procedures. Volatility, for example, is often not caused by ignorance that the applicant intends to supplement - but the sheer lack of time. Anyone who shines with such an ignorance of the realities of a company has already lost.
Make a positive impression when applying - do not stand out unpleasantly
Here are the current Top 10 of absolute No-Go's:
- Bringing his mother to talk with 43
- Escape to the toilet and never come back.
- Rush the chaplain because you do not have time for a long job interview
- Proximity attempts to the discussion leader.
- Go to his mobile during the call.
- Drill in the nose during the conversation.
- In sports or Schlabberklamotten come - and then say that you feel better in it.
- Specify with competencies where there are none - at a position in IT support you should at least know what "hard disk" and "memory" are.
- Smoking in the middle of a job interview.
- Drunk to talk.

10 Don'ts: What do people pay particular attention to when applying?
- Formalities: Formal sloppiness, eg if date and signature are missing.
- Form: Many decision-makers are disturbed by a non-uniform character.
- Gaps in the CV: It is also a no-go for many when there are gaps in the curriculum vitae.

- Too detailed: Many HR managers do not want to read novels in the office, but want applications that come straight to the point.
- Photo: A bad photo catapults the applications to many recruiters.
- Multiple use: If application documents were reused, this shows disinterest - and quite a few reject the application.
- Spelling mistake: Many decision-makers interfere with spelling mistakes in such a way that the applicant falls through.
- Linguistic style: Not a few people are disturbed by an inappropriate language.
- Wrong contact person: Many recruiters put the application aside immediately if the contact person is spelled wrong or the wrong person!
