Why Resumes Get Rejected in Six Seconds · Lesson
The Six-Second Scan: What a Recruiter Actually Reads First
Objective
Understand why the top third of a resume carries disproportionate weight.
Seconds, not minutes
A recruiter screening dozens of resumes for one role spends seconds, not minutes, on a first pass - scanning job titles, company names, and dates before reading a single bullet point closely.
The top third carries the weight
If those top-level facts don't signal relevance instantly, the rest of the resume, however well-written, often doesn't get read at all. The top third of the page carries more weight than its share of the page.
