Putting Together my Résumé
January 30th, 2006
I am spending some time tonight working on something that I haven’t thought about in years - my résumé.
We recently hired a public relations firm out of LA (aren’t they all based in LA??) to help polish us up a little bit, and help both companies present more of a professional image. Evidently, it takes more to sell yourself and company than plopping yourself in front of your computer and working day and night. Go figure.
So it turns out that Jeanine wants us to put together a CV telling the world (or whoever she can get to listen) how smart and wonderful we are. Putting together a résumé is definitely not my cup of tea, so I turned to the Internet for a little help. A pretty thorough search on both Google and Yahoo produced lackluster results - unless you are looking for companies to do the work for you. One site that I did find helpful, CV Tips, had some nice layout ideas, as well as thoughts on content and overall presentation.
The silver lining here is that I am not putting this together in hopes of looking for a new gig. Those days (knock on wood) are behind me…
