Resume Make Over

Wow!  I was really pleased to find that my initial score on my resume was an A-.  According to RezScore, and I quote, "Congratulations. Your resume compares with the best resumes our experts graded.  It vividly tells the story of your work history, provides just enough details, and effectively communicates your value."  I knew I had worked hard on my resume this past summer and really spruced it up.  I guess I did okay!  I won't allow myself a big head, however.  Anyone can sound good on paper.  The real test comes during the interview and how well you perform on the job.

At any rate, I could see by their bar graph, that I could use a little more business on my business education resume, so I notched that part up a little more with a more detailed description of what I did in what I now like to call, "my former life."    The overall score stayed the same (90th) percentile, but the business management bar did go up ever so slightly.
