Conducted 500+ interviews so far
If I could point out 5 mistakes you should NOT make in your resume, here they are:
1. Including buzzwords
A lot of resumes include "flexible" or "detailed-oriented" words, that are clearly googled because the interviewee's personality does not reflect it.
In resumes and life, simplicity wins the battle and the war.
Everything else takes your dream job far.

2. Sharing your picture
Unless it is a modeling resume, you do not need to share your picture.
You are not hired on the basis of how you look.
You are hired on the basis of what all steps you took.

3. Grammatical Errors
It is a sure-shot way for the interviewer to make sure to not hire you.
If you do not work hard to get the job by making your resume error-free,
How will you ever prosper under the giant company tree?

4. Incorrect details
Details of years of previous jobs/achievements instead of mentioning the months is an incorrect detail
Because if you worked till 2021 in a company, it would make a huge difference if it was January 2021 or December 2021

Your resume speaks more than it shows
It is on the tiny details that your chance to get selected grows.

5. Archiac Resume
Job 1: 2018-Present
Job 2: 2021-Present
Sureshot way of candidate updating last job position but not updating the resume doc for the position before that.

Your resume needs to be tailor-made and altered
Otherwise, it would be your fault that you faltered.

Most companies still hire through resumes.
Making it detailed yet precise, and suited to the job you are applying for is what will give you extra brownie points (and perhaps the entire cake of the job).

Your resume is not just a piece of paper
It is your personality's mirror.
Hurry is not cool
Making a resume in hurry will only make the interviewer drool.
Make it with patience
That is what will give the company your reliance.
