Tax brackets have been the same system for a century yet 3/4 of people still don’t seem to understand that taking a raise / OT that will put you in the next bracket won’t make you earn less money.
Also writing resumes has been pretty consistent the past few decades.
Compare that to biology which changes every 2-3 years in some cases.
I did have some classes for writing resumes and professional emails but we were like 13 and too dumb to care.
Also the class was really boring and lackluster. Telling children “you have to write down your past jobs and stuff…” and making them write a mock resume isn’t very engaging
So you want them to teach you how to write a resume, but at no point do you want to write a resume while learning to write a resume because that’s boring?
It just makes the fact they don’t teach it that much more inexcusable.
Also writing resumes has been pretty consistent the past few decades.
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.
