one more thing...
as i thought about it this is the best i can say...
because whether you want to face it or not, this is a contest. You might be the best candidate. you might be the most qualified. but if you don't make your resume stand out from the rest—if you don't make the right first impression—you'll never land that interview.
and if you never land that interview, then that job of your dreams is just that... a dream.
your resume is one of the most important documents of your life. the resume is your calling card, your best chance to make a first impression. without an exceptional resume, you won't stand a chance of standing out from the crowd.
just my two cents... you're the pimp and the whore is yourself... make it work to your advantage - know your shit and the paper will will follow - by keeping it simple and them in the dark they will follow with questions that only you know how to answer...
good luck!!!
