Understanding What is Most Important!

Most people spend their time spinning a wonderful web on their resume. STOP!!! The most important part of job searching (after hunting down the decision maker...remember don't let people tell you they will call you...ever heard of "check's in the mail?") is the INTERVIEW! The resume can only hurt you if it is a book. Every HR, recruiter, and career coach will tell you that they get hundreds of resumes. They spend less than 15 seconds looking at your resume. So all of that time searching for the right word and adding another page is meaningless. Save it for the interview. Try to give as little as possible till that interview. Initially, decision makers are looking for people who are easy to talk to and can communicate well while being a good listener. You will have plenty of time in the interview to give real world examples of your accomplishments or bring in samples of your work or accomplishments.
