  1. I used this resume writing service in my area, this is the email address, (resume.help50@yahoo.com) you should try them, it only cost me $35.00 and I got a great job from this new resume, I never thought about the format that they use but the turn around time was less then 24 hrs. I would have to say it was the best service I have ever used and it was worth every dime. Also they let me pay through paypal.


  2. 1 year at McDonald's

    Fri Cook, helped unload the truck

    2 Months Burger king

    I put the tomato on the hamburger



    6 months Wendy's

    Potato cleaner

  3. there are a couple of different styles of resumes you can make. 1 is called a funtionality resume and the other one is like uhh i forgot the name but its more detailed than the functionality resume. i can show you samples of both, just message me.

  4. Besides setting all margins to 1", the most important criteria for setting up a professional resume besides relevant text, is "scanability." Here are some helpful tips:

    1. Place just below your identification header [your hame, address, phone, email address] any Conditional Warning Statement such as "Confidential Resume,"Do Not Contact Current Employer," etc.

    2. Always fill-in an Objectives category [just below the Conditional Warning Statement] and make sure that he Objective will contribute to the profitability of your future employer;

    3. Select a mono-type font such as Helvetica, Arial, Courier or Times Roman; do not select any cursive handwriting styles which cannot scanned;

    4. Keep font sizes within a range of 10 to 12 pts.;

    5. Avoid styling text with a justified alignment, keep it flushed left;

    6. Instead of using tabs to set up blocked text entries, generate a table and use the column and row settings accordingly;

    7. Do not place an i.d. picture anywhere on the resume, this is a major taboo due to discrimination issues;

    8. Do not place any graphic text [saved as .gifs] onto the resume since it may be overlooked during the scanning phase;

    9. List at the very end of the resume your interests which should include travel experiences, language skills, social interactions such as golf, team sports, tennis, etc.

    In conclusion, the above helpful hints were designed to allow ease of scanning of your resume into PDF which can then be text captured for seach purposes by your potential employer. If the original resume was created in Word, WordPerfect or Mac Appleworks, it can be Saved As a PDF file which then can be saved as an email attachment. Otherwise, you can simply use a scanner and scan a hard copy of the resume and then save as a PDF file.

    Failure to conform the resume to appropriate fonts and styles as outlined above will result in rejection of the resume simply due to the inability of the scanning device to properly index relevant resume entries.

    Good luck!


  5. Google "resume sample" or "writing a resume" or something of that nature. Also, do a cover letter (google it), it makes your resume look that much more professional.

    As for interview tips, always maintain eye contact (I mean, you don't want to do a creepy stare) but don't look around at other stuff. Don't cross your arms or legs (unless you're wearing a short skirt or something, which you shouldn't be at an interview, but I'm just saying). When you're asked a question that requires a real answer (like a sentence or two, not just a one word response) take a second to ponder and think about your answer (at least make it look like you're contemplating), but try to avoid using things like "Umm".

  6. Look up some resumes on Google Images.

    Always add these sections:

    Objective

    Skills & Qualifications/Summary of Qualifications

    Employment History/Work History

    Education

    References (Here you can say "Available upon request.")

    If you have any Volunteer Experience or Honors or Awards then you can add that too.

    And as for job interviews.. they're rough. I suggest you just maintain calm, think of every possible question they're gonna ask you and think of an answer in advance so that you don't pause or studder.

    Google some interview questions and be prepared.

    Don't let 'em see you sweat! Always be professional and polite.
