Oops forgot one other thing. Unless you've got 2-3 years job experience, or your applying for a job in education, your education experience goes at the END of your resume, not the beginning.

In advertising there's a term known as white space. The term should be pretty self-explanatory. Without going overboard, you want to keep the white space to a minimum.
I've seen people put a date down for when they were at a job and then indent everything about the job. They end up using about HALF the space on the…
I'm a recruiter. You've hit two idiots.
I might call someone where their salary is higher than the company has told me their salary will go, but there will always be a reason for it. Perhaps the candidate has been out of work for six months. I know that the market is higher than what the company wants to pay and I…
Had one a long time ago. The problem with anything like this is the extrusion heads.
For whatever stupid reason companies seem to make the part that holds the head plastic and then the extrusion shape part metal, or vice versa. Make your recipe wrong, as in too thick, and you'll blow out the plastic part every time.
I'm a cooking geek. I've made my own pasta for quite a while, but I still went to the site.
Probably one of the best sites I've seen in quite a while.
Thanks.
I am also a recruiter.
This is THE most inane thing that I've heard in a while.
If someone wants/needs a job bad enough the commute is irrelevant.
I live in a Chicago suburb. There are thousands of people who will commute 100+ miles/day.
Sign up for it.
I've looked at some of the places they currently serve and the coverage maps.
Based on those maps, it would seem that they should offer coverage to at least the six county Chicago area and Lake County Indiana as a minimum.
I've tried a couple of these. Admittedly, I live 35 miles from Chicago, in an area with a lot of trees, and at a grade maybe 10 feet lower than the road.
My caution is if you're going to buy one of these antennae that you make sure you can return if it doesn't work.
It appears that streaming Aereo, when it finally gets…
BINGO. That's the set!
I'm older and love to cook. When we were first married, we "invested" in some very high end "non-stick" pans. Worse "investment" we ever made. Still were able to use them, but they were never "non-stick".
A year and a half ago, perhaps longer, America's Test Kitchen made T-fal non-stick pans their highest rated…
Sorry, but considering the winter in this area I'm more inclined to buy this type of robot cleaning machine.
My funniest. Over two years ago my wife and I had to move my, then, 84 year old aunt in with us. She had never had high speed internet so she was enthralled by what she could do with things. Unfortunately, you can't manage someone 24/7.
She was going anywhere and everywhere and despite the protections built into the…
I'm surprised. My way they know who you are, so they can remove you. How do they know how to remove you?
Here's an easier way.
They all come with pre-paid envelopes. It costs these companies more to have that envelope returned than it does to send the mail out.
Simply take their letter, write across it, "Remove me from your mailing list" and send it back to them in their envelope.
It might take more than one time, but…
Whatever works for you. I was in sales for 30 years. I was a hiring manager for about 15. I've been a recruiter for 10. I've also gone through one of the larger outplacement firms.
All of that disagrees with having multiple resumes.
Again, if it works for you . . .
I disagree.
Having multiple, multiple resumes out there can cause you all sorts of problems. Typically, you'll get a phone call from someone if they're interested in you. You don't want to be stammering because you can't remember which resume you sent them. It makes people in the hiring process doubt your veracity.
I work in the food ingredient industry as a recruiter. The majority of slots that I fill are extremely technical. Even sales. Can't tell you the number of times I've had to educate an HR person on what the hiring manager is actually looking for.
I'm a recruiter. If I had to give one piece of advice, the biggest error that I see people make is listing job responsibilities rather than job accomplishments.
When you prepare your resume, you need to think about how you are better than the person who sits next to you who is doing the same job. Did you get any…
Hankigamus,
If you've got any type of e-reader, it's available electronically. It's the only cookbook that I'd buy in that format. I made the mistake of buying another cookbook as an e-book. It didn't have an index, so it made finding recipes for say chicken very hard. Will only buy cookbooks as a hard copy any more.…
I have "The Flavor Bible". It is excellent, but you probably are going to have to be a food geek to make it worth your while. In addition to giving you things that compliment each other, it also gives you what things are the best matches.
For each food item, it probably gives you 40-60 choices of other ingredients.
Som…
