You have a very unique writing style. A lot of people don't have that touch, they just drone on and on in the most boring way. But not you - thanks! The job market now is so competitive, you have to have a perfect resume. There is a very professional consulting service a friend of mine used. It is at http://www.www.ResumeQA.com.com/Review_My_Resume.html. Please check it out and let me know what you think. Thanks again! I don’t usually write on blogs but had to on yours.

When you understand your personality traits — your true nature — you can begin to identify the types of tasks and work environments that you are best suited for. While there are a number of good profile instruments on the market, such as DiSC and MBTI, I’ve found that CORE MAP is the most effective profile for identifying conditioned behavior patterns and revealing your true nature.

]]> Comment on Business cards and job seekers by silentzephyr http://waypoint.wordpress.com/2007/10/17/business-cards-and-job-seekers/#comment-435 silentzephyr Thu, 28 May 2009 23:22:01 +0000 http://waypoint.wordpress.com/2007/10/17/business-cards-and-job-seekers/#comment-435 That's a great post on job seekers and business cards. I'm an undergraduate computer science student and although I have never used what I call a 'job-seeker's card', I have had friends suggest its use. What bothers me is that unless you spend enough time making an impression with the person you are speaking to, a business card for an undergraduate student seems rather forward and bothersome. I understand its use if one plans to hand it out to potentially good contacts at other social events but a career fair seems to be a more appropriate place for a resume. Anyway, thanks for the post. It is good to have the feedback of an experienced employer and their thoughts on such seemingly minor, yet grand issues :-) That’s a great post on job seekers and business cards.
