It just makes the fact they don't teach it that much more inexcusable.
Ehhh kinda. How you write and tailor a resume has changed quite a bit, but it doesn't look like it from a glance. But the more important thing is that applying for jobs has changed drastically. 15yo I handed out resumes at my college's career fair and that was antiquated even then when everyone preferred online applications. It's only changed more since with job social media sometimes being required.
I don't know why it requires an entire class to teach. It's a piece of paper, with your education and job experience on it. It's not a dissertation on the mating rituals of deep sea arthropods.
It doesn't need an entire class. That's a strawman. But they could cover it over 1-2 days in 1 class in the last month or so of high school.
I've seen resumes that people submit. It can be 50/50 as to whether it's decent or absolutely terrible.
