Is including my education on my resume a red flag if its been 6 years since I graduated? I graduated December 2019 and my current job is my only relevant experience, so I dont have much to add that will fill up a whole page.

Im in PR so not sure if its a different expectation but I would personally think its completely fine. Knowing your educational background is still relevant to your skills and experience 🤷‍♀️

Leave off the year you graduated. Or…
Have you been at your current job since graduating? If yes then just fill out your responsibilities a bit more. Add all internships and any volunteer work.

Ive been at my current job since 2022- in between 2019 and 2022, I was working in retail full time

I have my education on there graduated in 2020 and got a masters afterwards but I don’t include my graduation year on my resume

college yes. high school no. also i feel like it’s a good way for HR to gauge your age?

You should definitely have your education on your resume still. I wouldn’t take it off unless I was decades in, personally

Thanks everyone! :)

Also, are there any provisions you’d consider absolutely crucial from the owner’s side?

Hey fishes,

I got an offer from a company below is the compensation layout. Can you all tell me what will be the in-hand salary per month, will it be 49k?
I can see that EPF for employer is also deducted from my salary so this is not correct based on the EPF Act, is there some other thing which is not correct in the given Annexure?

Thank you!

My friend just got out of a relationship and hooked up with his ex's best friend a week later. They're now dating and seeing each other everyday.
I couldn't help but feel like this wasn't an appropriate thing to do for both parties. He also revealed that he cheated on his past exes.

I'm naturally feeling a bit weary of his character and questioning whether this is a friend I want to keep close in my life. Perhaps I'm being too judgmental?

Am I overthinking? contd.
