Here are the items you generally don't need on your resume:
- **Full home address**: It's usually sufficient to include just your city and state.
- **Marital status**: This is not relevant to your qualifications for a job.
- **Political affiliation or religion**: Personal beliefs are not relevant to job performance.
- **Number of children you have**: This is private information and not pertinent to your qualifications.
- **Your photo**: In many places, including a photo can lead to bias; it's often best not to include one unless specifically requested.
- **Your age or ethnicity**: This information is not required and can lead to discrimination.
The one item you may still want to include is your **phone number**, as it is essential for contact purposes.
