Thanks for commenting, Mark.

If, as an employer, you’re having trouble easily determining what a candidate is about, then that candidate hasn’t done their research and worked on aligning their qualifications and qualities with what you’re looking for in good-fit candidates. A resume today needs to target the specific needs of the employer. Saves everyone’s time, and helps both the candidate and employer in the job search process.

As an employer I think the problem with the resume is just all the time it takes to sort out the good from the bad in a relatively 2-dimensional medium.

Shucks, Steve, I’m blushing. I’m glad this post hit home with you. I just try to cover the topics job seekers want to know about, in as straightforward a manner as I can.

Thanks for your comment!

Okay, I admit it. You are a genius because I agree with you more than you know. Bigoted and biased I am in favor of you staking a claim on rarely addressed bread and butter issues with such passion and common sense. Too gooey?
Ignore Meg, men and women and boys and girls, at your peril.
Thanks for making my morning and very likely the remainder of my week.
Forgive me too, “Meg, please DISPLAY your name on the top of your e-mail mailing if for no other reason than when I forward it to my “tribe” members they will immediately know the source and lazy me will not have to cut and paste the author’s name (you) otherwise not available until or if the reader clicks on the headline link.”
Astonishingly yours!
