Anyone want to check out my resume?

I was wondering if anyone on here is willing to check out and critique my resume?

If you want to, e-mail me (my e-mail is in my info thing) and let me know on here that you did. I will only send my resume to the folks I've seen frequent this board (for security purposes, obviously).

Thanks =)

Re: Anyone want to check out my resume?

Sybil, Even posts you have seen on here does not mean they warrant credibility. Please do not let anyone see any personal info on your resume.
I posted a thread last week "approach with caution"
because of an incident that happened to a friend posting too much info. It is dangerous in the world we live in today.
Perhaps a teacher from school would be a better and more trusting source.
Remember on all forums...Trolls walk beside us.

Good luck in your job search!!

Re: Anyone want to check out my resume?

Oh, I know! I wouldn't leave any of my personal information or my real name on it, anyway. I just wanted someone to go over it to make sure my grammar/spelling and the format looks good. Heck, Sybil isn't even my real name =)

Thanks!

Re: Anyone want to check out my resume?

i would like to see your resume! I dont think mine is working for some reason. Have not had a job yet, it's been 3 months since graduating. The main problem is, "I dont have enough experience." Or I am "not certified", which is why I am taking the exam in Oct.
I dont know why people are saying that its unsafe for you to send it to someone. ??? I would just delete the personal info on it, (I.E your address,phone number, and real name). Do you want to post it on here? just to let others see what a general M.A resume can or should look like? Thanks!
