Common mistakes to avoid
- Do not use one generic resume, message, or tracker for everything.
- Do not ignore verification when a job, recruiter, or vendor request feels rushed.
- Do not collect information without a clear next action and owner.
- Do not exaggerate tools, skills, certifications, or experience you cannot explain.
- Do not let a good idea stay in your head; turn it into a tracker, checklist, email, or resume bullet.
