What recruiters will check first in Sydney

Recruiters and supervising lawyers scan for practice area fit, accuracy, and keywords. For Paralegal, your resume should show the practice areas you supported, the documents and filings you handled, the case or document systems you used, and the result. A vague list of duties does not help. A specific line with caseload, filing deadlines met, documents reviewed, or turnaround time works much better.

Check this before sending another application.
