Someone’s always conducting a new study, it seems, and many times the usefulness of the topic is questionable. However, I just found an article about how Dr. Jakob Nielsen conducted a study tracking the eye movements of people as they read online content.

For instance, instead of including keywords in your text, use them in your resume headings and subheadings to maximize their potential to the recruiter reading your resume.
Check out this article on how the letter F can help your job search. Then head to your computer and make a few quick changes to your resume!
