The importance of resumes has been overstated for many years now, and I look forward to the day they are phased out entirely. Minor grammar changes are not what is making the difference between getting an interview or not. Years' worth of work cannot be distilled down to 2 lines on a piece of paper, and recruiters/hiring managers already know this.

Employers are looking at your education, companies you worked at, years of experience, and maybe a vague idea of what your work area was before this. Just this info is enough to make a decision for whether to call you for an interview, and after that the resume is useless.
