Anyone still awake?

Its Funny I've put out so many reusmes and applications that when I see a new one posted I check my file and find out I already applied before. I send out/ apply an average of 8-12 a day, I spend about 8+ hours a day doing this. My wife barely appies and has had 4 job offers and 7 interviews in the same period.

Have you tried usajobs.opm.gov?

It's quite clear: you suck at making your own resume.

 

Some people are not capable , like you and me.

 

The solution is simple. Have your wife rewrite your resume for all future new applications and then summarize for you what she wrote to prep you for the interview. But she must not let you read your new resume prior to the interview, trust me.

 

....interesting . ... maybe ....

 

She proof read my resume. As a supervisor I used to review a lot of them and in college I took technical writing courses which also prep you for writing resumes. My field of expertise is a dead field. She is/was a marketing director and right now companies are trying to boost sales.

 

If your field of expertise is a dead end perhaps this will be a blessing in the long run and you will discover your real calling in life.

Sadly this day and age with the internet you go into a business and they tell you they cannot accept a resume and they don't hand out applications. You need to go to their website. I 've tried using friends of friends that work at places to get my foot in the door. Companies are being very picky and slow during the hire procees.

 

My 1st interview was last week. I was told I was chosen along the 11 others out of a couple hundred. I will be notified in two weeks if I get a second interview in front of an oral board the 1st week in Dec. along with 2 others. If they decide to pick me I will start work the 1st week of Feb.

 

 

IMO...This is a desperation test to determine how low you will go salary wise.

You have to accept that some companies are vultures when it comes to hiring , especially at a time like this and exposing yourself and applying to as many companies as possible will help you be the chooser rather than companies like this

 

Not about the salary I was told the package. 72,000-110,000 a year, $15,00 in stock options and a 30% annual bonus for good performance.

If I told you that there are two guys in my church, great guys, and that they both work for one of the largest timber companies in the world, would you be interested in sending them a resume, even if it meant moving to take a job?
