I'm spending all day tomorrow writing it up. I'll post it up when I get a chance. A good opportunity came up for a unionized job, so I need to nail this.

PM me ur resume.
I can give you constructive feedback and not just bash you on how shitty it is.
please at least tell me how old you are. cause I will be harder on you if you're 28 and career oriented versus you being 18 and fresh out from schoool looking for a job.

Did a search and nothing really came up specifically to what I am wondering about cover letters. so here goes.
I'm submitting a cover letter + resume through a company's website, just wondering if I should leave a space underneath "best regards" and my name? If I was to submit a hard copy of the cover letter, I am suppose to leave a space to put my signature there when I go to print it out. I am just unsure of this if I were to submit it electronically. Thanks! Here's what I mean:
Best regards,
My name
Enc: Resume

i hate jobs on craigslist that don't post what the name of the company is, or anything.
I applied for a bartending job on Craigslist for a club downtown and bit the bullet worried that it could have been my own employer. annoys the shit out fo me.

It could be some jackass receiving resumes from others to get feedback on their shitty resume.
But I think in general, your resume "format" really depends on what type of job it is. Also make sure you have the right "key words". For example, if it's for a tech support job, make sure your resume contains words like... "trouble shooting, technical assistance, concise communication etc etc...". The reason I say this is because a lot of recruiting companies automatically shove your resume through a database grinder when you submit it, and only if your resume comes out alive, will the recruiter even look at it.
Sometimes, it's just luck, really | |

What are some tips for resumes? I'm 16, with little work experience other than a year of news-paper delivery years ago. Anyone mind checking mine over as well?
