resume please help

i would add something like an 'about me' section.........interests, unusual things you have done. outside interests....... anything you can brag about and keep the readers attention......and not to sound like an old sexist pig i might include a professional looking photo if you are not delivering the resume in person. it shouldnt matter but people's looks play a huge role in hiring but no one will admit it

some how add you have "common sense"...... probably the most important trait employers look for in employees.....

shouldnt they just assume people have common sense?? lol
do you put that on your resumes? "microsoft word, microsoft publisher, common sense, etc.." lol

common sense is not common...... trust me!!! assertiveness is another good character trait.......

John and I run our own companies...... i agree with John..... yes it seems a bit shovanistic...... but trust me its a dog eat dog world and any advantage you have you should use...... everyones resume looks great but if you look presentable your more likely to get a inperson interview.......

They are absolutely right on what they are saying. Common sense isn't as common as it states. Also, make sure your objective states what you want to do such as helping the company you are wanting to get into. ......Such as wanting to get a position to better your skills and/or develop your skills in talents in a better situated environment. This seems to help alot.

NOTHING COMMON IN COMMON SENSE

pics are your call...........i would try to deliver resumes in person if i were in your position


given two applicants for a job with the same qualifications the choice ends up being based on what ??? looks, attitude etc.
