Minor typo on resume

Post by Anonymous User » Tue Aug 19, 2014 5:14 pm

I noticed a minor typo on my resume a day or two prior to OCI. I have an extra period in my "Interests Section". For example, the sentence appears. like this. We had OCI last week and I am preparing for callbacks now.

It was too late for me to change prior to OCI as the firms already had the resume, I figured drawing attention to it would make it worse. Should I draw attention to it on callbacks by giving them a new resume or just pretend it is not there? It is pretty hard to notice as neither I or CSO noticed when reviewing my resume prior to oci.
