anybody good with resumes?
 

I've been working on my resume and not sure how good it looks. if anybody on here looks at them rugularely and wouldnt mind giving me there opinion I'd appreciate it. just let me know and ill email it to ya

Our Personnel Manager and my sister in law who is a personel manager said they only get past the first page 1 in 10 times. Try to keep a neat first page with a good bit of info

you mean the cover letter? yea thats what is killing me

Good advice. When I look at a resume or help someone out with one, it has to be neat and to the point. I think of it like a PowerPoint presentation. Hit the high points. Don't be too wordy. I mean, if you have a job with a lot of duties, then you can't help it. But if you were a cashier at a grocery store, there's no reason to have a paragraph on what you did. I like to be able to look at a cover letter and a resume and see everything I need to know quick. If I have to search for what your duties were, or pick out the major duty, its not a very good resume.

Keep in mind, most resumes are 1-2 pages. Mine, with 2 college degrees, description of my research, 3 job descriptions, college accomplishments, skills/knowledge, and professional memberships is a a page and a half.
