Bock noted that 58% of all resumes the company receives are "thrown in the trash" simply because of spelling errors. "Spelling errors are deadly because employers interpret them as a candidate's inability to focus on small details," according to Bock.
In fact, for Google - a company that reviews more than 50,000 resumes a week - spelling errors are one of the 5 mistakes that can send your resume to the shredder.
However, Bock notes that he is confident that spelling errors are not due to laziness, but rather to obsession. "People who write their resumes with the utmost care may be particularly vulnerable to this typo error. This is because these people often go back and correct their resumes over and over again in an attempt to improve them," he explains.
In an article he published, Bock notes other common mistakes that candidates make in the resumes they send, such as lying, resumes that are too long, and revealing confidential information about the companies they worked for.
Regarding the most common mistake - which, as mentioned, is spelling errors - he has a simple recommendation: before you submit your resume, simply go through it carefully from beginning to end.
"It just allows you to focus on each line specifically," he explains.
