Colleagues

• Remember “Recruiters” work for agencies and Corporations alike. Silly notes on your resume posting such as “If you are a Recruiter. Don’t Call Me!” will be noted and they won’t call you!

• 100 resumes an hour are posted to any given site. Update your resume daily if not weekly.

• Keep your reference OFF your posted resume. Recruiters will call them BEFORE they call you. Nothing like losing the job before you even interviewed for it.

• Email addresses that are cute to you, are NOT cute to your next employer. Keep it professional.

• WE CAN SEE YOU - Keep Facebook site and pics professional too.

• 60 % of the economy runs on small to medium companies. Open a phonebook, you might find a company that suits you there.
