One of my best friends does hiring at a very large corporation; one of the tricks that he has taught me, is that a lot of companies will run a CV through automated software, culling any CVs that do not match the keywords the job description is looking for, so I do not see it as a major deal adding the "fluff" to get through these (flawed) systems. In fact, if you were an applicant, and A/B tested your resumes, I'd probably hire you straight away.

So the moral is: tailor your CV to the type of corporation you're applying to?
