You say that, yet most hiring managers won't look at non embellished resumes as studies and even interviews have shown

It's good that you are more keen on genuine resumes- it saves effort and precious time on both ends- but unfortunately most aren't

Then genuinely they have no business hiring people. Which probably won't surprise you.

I mean you won't find me disagreeing with ya. It's just how it is unfortunately.

And as long as managers tend to be incompetent like that, you'll unfortunately be swamped with embellished resumes.

Your effort is much appreciated, but don't get angry at the people making the resumes for being forced to play a messed up game that wastes their time.
