5 Resume Points Checked by Recruiters

2025/10/6 Edited to

... Read more履歴書って「何が正解かわからなくて難しい」と感じやすいですよね。私も転職活動の最初は、内容より“形式”で損していたことがありました。ここでは、よく迷うポイント(学歴はいつから?/職歴の書き方/職務経歴書は必要?/手書きorパソコン?/資格がない場合)を、採用担当目線を意識してまとめます。 ■学歴はいつから書く?(どこから?) 基本は「中学卒業」または「高校入学」からでOKです。社会人の転職なら、高校入学以降にそろえると見やすい印象でした。学歴欄は“経歴の整合性”を確認される場所なので、学校名は正式名称で、入学・卒業年月を西暦に統一すると安心です。 ■職歴の書き方:西暦統一+空白期間の理由 職歴は採用担当が一番じっくり見る箇所の一つ。会社名は正式名称、部署・職種、担当業務を短く添えます。入社・退職年月は西暦で統一し、退職理由は「一身上の都合により退職」など簡潔に。空白期間がある場合は、資格勉強、家族の都合、療養など“ひと言でも理由を明記”すると不安を減らせます。 ■アルバイトは職歴に入れる?(バイト履歴書) 応募職種に関連があるバイトや、長期(目安:1年以上)で継続したものは職歴として書くと強みになります。短期のバイトが多い場合は、全部を並べるより「接客アルバイト(飲食)を中心に計◯年」など要約しても読みやすいです。 ■職務経歴書は必要?受かる職務経歴書のコツ 転職では“ほぼ必須”と思って準備するのがおすすめです。履歴書がプロフィールなら、職務経歴書は実績の詳細。受かりやすくするコツは、①担当業務 ②工夫したこと ③成果(数字)をセットで書くこと。「売上120%」「資格3つ取得」など数字があると信頼度が上がります。 ■手書きorパソコン、どっちがいい? 指定がなければパソコン作成が無難です(読みやすく修正もしやすい)。ただ、手書きを求める会社も一部あるので、募集要項に合わせるのが最優先。どちらでも、誤字脱字は“1つあるだけで印象ダウン”しやすいので、提出前に最低2回は見直しました。 ■資格がない場合の書き方 「なし」で大丈夫。無理に埋めるより、自己PRや職務経歴書で“できること”を具体化する方が評価につながります。勉強中なら「○○資格 取得に向け学習中(受験予定:◯月)」と書くと前向きさが伝わります。 最後に、提出前チェックの定番は「写真の清潔感」「誤字脱字」「志望動機は“なぜこの会社か”を3行以上で具体的に」。この3つを押さえるだけでも、履歴書の好印象度がかなり変わりました。
