A former Williams recruiter told me they reject qualified candidates daily because of these 3 stupid mistakes. Here's how to fix them. THE 3 DEADLY MISTAKES: 🚫 MISTAKE #1: Generic Copy-Paste Resume Sending same CV to Mercedes, Red Bull, Williams → FIX: Tailor each application with exact keywords from job posting → If they say "CFD analysis," don't write "computational work" → Result: 3X more likely to pass screening 🚫 MISTAKE #2: Burying Motorsport Projects F1 recruiters look for passion projects FIRST, not your degree → FIX: Create "Motorsport Projects" section at TOP of resume → Formula Student, race data analysis, karting experience = front and center → Mercedes hired weaker academics with killer projects over perfect grades 🚫 MISTAKE #3: Fancy Design Over Function 90% of F1 teams use ATS that can't read creative formats → FIX: Clean, simple, black text, standard fonts, PDF → Too many colors and images = straight to bin → ATS-friendly templates only ⚡ 30-SECOND BONUS FIXES: ✅ Quantify EVERYTHING: "Reduced lap time by 0.3s" not "improved efficiency" ✅ Zero typos: One mistake = you don't care about details ✅ One page max: Unless 10+ years experience WHAT F1 RECRUITERS ACTUALLY WANT: * Keywords matching their job description * Passion projects visible immediately * ATS-readable format * Quantified achievements * Perfect attention to detail THE REALITY: You have 7 seconds to impress. Don't waste them on mistakes everyone makes. #F1Jobs #F1Resume - @novoresume
