Will I infringe on others’ copyrights?

By raysmithtx

Question by LLim: Will I infringe on others’ copyrights?
There are a lot of resume examples on the internet. If I collect all the sentences from various sites for Job Descriptions on resumes and compile them as part of the feature in my product for my business, will I violate copyright laws. I don’t think job descriptions are proprietary. Example: “Designed and implemented internal control framework”, or “Successfully resolved delivery issues for ….”, etc.

I am planning to offer online resume building business like many that’s already found online or at the store.

Simple statements of facts cannot be copyrighted. Generic statements are unlikely to meet the requisite criteria for “creativity” and “oiginality” to be protected as a property right.
