The Same Resume Styles
Hey folks,
With the new recruiting season approaching I get to see tons of resumes for analyst and internship positions. Almost every second resume HR sends me seems to be the M&I resume template. My colleagues argued that they like very similar designs because it makes it easier to screen. I somehow dislike seeing the same resume style over and over but don't let this influence my recommendations.
For those of you who are going to (or did) screen resumes, do you discriminate if applications look all the same? If two candidates have the same profile, will you prefer the one with the more personalized resume?Thanks for your input.

Interested, that always bugged me
I like seeing the same resume style, especially if it's clean like M&I. It's way easier on the eyes and I get to screen faster.
Brian must feel pretty proud. Soon everyone on Wall Street will be using his template.
So having the same resume style does not actually hurt you right?
