Simple fashion resumes may sound boring&nbsp;but&nbsp;they can really impress your potential employers and increase your chances of hiring in return. While hunting for jobs, crafting resumes that showcase your skills and past achievements in best light becomes super important. People spend hours refining it and even seek expert opinions to make it through. But in the end, simplicity&nbsp;is what actually&nbsp;may matter the most, a former Google recruiter has suggested.

Holding 15 years of experience while hiring candidates for tech giants like Google, Apple, Samsung and Nvidia, Stefanie Fackrell suggests one should keep their resumes basic, simple and classic.

He even insisted, "Make it boring."

Sounding weird, right? However, the former recruiter has a solid reason for that.

Prioritising clean text over charts, colours, graphs&nbsp;and&nbsp;pictures is the key to making an efficient resume, she indicates.

“When I worked at Google, I saw a lot of artistic resumes with charts and Google colours,” Fackrell said.

“Instead of writing a list of titles and accomplishments, they’d split their resume into columns and quadrants. By creating these colourful resumes, you’re just being a little gimmicky. Some of these resumes are also not easily readable, which makes the applicants’ qualifications harder to discern,” she adds.

She stresses that a resume should be built to tell your professional story&nbsp;in a compelling way&nbsp;within 10 to 60 seconds. It also means that it should not exceed two pages.

"A resume is showing you in a 10-to-60-second format on paper,” she said. “It’s important to tell a compelling story through your resume, making sure it is clear and to the point. While listing your accomplishments is crucial, the resume should not be more than two pages long,” she said.

She highlights another important aspect of the resume in an interview with CNBC. She says people don't focus enough on listing their past achievements in their&nbsp;resumes&nbsp;while they&nbsp;tend to focus more on responsibilities, which may raise concerns among the potential recruiters.

A German court on Wednesday sentenced an Iraqi preacher to more than 10 years in prison after finding him guilty of taking part in planning an attack in Germany and collecting funds and fighters for the Islamic State militant group.&nbsp;

Prosecutors accused the 40-year-old preacher, identified as Ahmad Abdulaziz Abdullah A in court documents, of recruiting at least seven individuals, who ended up travelling to the Middle East where they fought alongside IS.&nbsp;

Two of the men he recruited are believed to have killed more than 150 Iraqi soldiers in suicide bombings.&nbsp;

The Higher Regional Court in the northern city of Celle sentenced him to 10-and-a-half years in prison. Three members of the Islamist network he had set up were handed prison terms ranging from four to eight years.&nbsp;

The main suspect, known by the nickname Abu Walaa, which in Arabic means Father of Loyalty, and the three others were arrested in November 2016 in raids in the states of Lower Saxony and North-Rhine Westphalia.&nbsp;

Abu Walaa sat quietly on the stand in court wearing a gray hooded sweatshirt, a white T-Shirt and a face mask that covered parts of this long black beard as he waited for the verdict and sentencing behind a glass cubicle.&nbsp;

The defendants had chosen to remain silent during the trial and did not enter pleas.&nbsp;

Originally an offshoot of al Qaeda, Islamic State took large parts of Iraq and Syria from 2014, imposing a hardline rule with public beheadings and attacks by supporters abroad.&nbsp;

It was defeated by a US-led military coalition, which in 2019 captured the group's last territory in Syria.&nbsp;

The men had held religious lessons during which potential recruits were handed radical Islamic material, prosecutors said.&nbsp;

Prosecutors believe Abu Walaa preached at the Fussilet Mosque in Berlin, which was attended by a failed asylum seeker, who killed 12 people at a Christmas market in the German capital last year.&nbsp;
