| 21:35.53 | keldwud | ayo |
| 21:51.23 | shalkie | keldwud lives! |
| 21:51.47 | keldwud | barely, but climning slowly out of this hole |
| 21:51.51 | keldwud | *climbing |
| 21:52.09 | shalkie | Really? Climbing? I just keep digging it seems. |
| 21:52.28 | shalkie | mutters climbing over and over |
| 21:52.59 | keldwud | yeah, I dug pretty deep over the summer and into September |
| 21:53.03 | keldwud | but starting to get healthy again |
| 21:53.53 | keldwud | I'm out job hunting and looking for some volunteers for resume feedback |
| 22:03.23 | shalkie | What kind of work are you looking for? |
| 22:03.40 | shalkie | icims-mike@theadamsresidence.netb5ERn8R7gM2QfdC |
| 22:03.47 | shalkie | UGH! |
| 22:03.58 | keldwud | I'm assuming ends at .net? |
| 22:04.32 | shalkie | It is one of those fancy new TLDs.... |
| 22:04.33 | BigBen212 | shalkie: and now we all have your email password |
| 22:04.34 | BigBen212 | great |
| 22:05.21 | keldwud | I'm trying to fit 9 pages of linked in information and 20 years of experience / skills into 2 pages of resume |
| 22:05.32 | keldwud | so this is my first experimentation |
| 22:05.38 | keldwud | sent btw shalkie |
| 22:05.39 | keldwud | and ty |
| 22:25.18 | romanovic | keldwud: you might consider cutting it down to a single page, regardless of length of work history. a single page, scannable at a glance, is much more convenient for the interviewer or hiring manager |
| 22:25.56 | romanovic | 100% of the details that will get you in the door to schedule an interview will always fit on one page |
| 22:26.26 | keldwud | yeah I was wondering about that |
| 22:26.36 | keldwud | maybe I should switch to a skills based resume? |
| 22:28.27 | romanovic | I'm not sure how others do it, but I target my resume toward the desired employer, and 1. drop off work history not relevant to my current career path, and 2. employers last worked > 10 yrs ago |
| 22:31.15 | keldwud | yeah, when I'm habing to hit an average of 100 applications... |
| 22:32.42 | romanovic | yeah, in that case harder to target. |
| 22:41.21 | shalkie | keldwud: I would suggest putting your eduction ahead of work experience. Right now it gets lost at the end. |
| 22:43.06 | shalkie | I did the same thing as romanovic with work history. I left off things that weren't relevant (Volunteer type things went into a different catagory) and dropped anything past 10 years. |
| 22:43.23 | shalkie | Also, it appears that we have been co-workers a couple of times. |
| 22:44.40 | shalkie | Or, more acccurately we were in the same circles, though possibly different time frames. |
| 22:46.01 | shalkie | Also I wrote my most resume in MD, that went over really well. |
| 22:46.06 | jfindlay | to some companies your resume is an advertising document; to others it's metadata about you they want to send into their resume machine |
| 22:46.33 | jfindlay | I have routinely gotten complaints from people in the latter category about having a marketing resume |
| 22:46.56 | jfindlay | ironically, their worldview contradicts anyone existing in the first category |
| 22:49.38 | jfindlay | they think that nobody actually reads resumes to be persuaded anymore |
| 22:49.57 | jfindlay | that that kind of thing is antiquated and a new world order has arrived |
