Whoo hoo!

@Reid-Cooper Thanks man!

Thank you! It is cold. I'm glad my my manager allowed me to work from home.

Hello everyone, I'm back! So, I just want to say thank you for everyone who did a review on my resume, September last year! I'm now about to finish my 3 months probation period and I want to say that the resume reviews you did was a big impact for my employment. And also I know now how cold really is here in Winterpeg. If you remember I'm also this guy. Thank you again! See you around!

@darrel : count your blessings. We "were blessed" with ~12" of snow today in Calgary and it will continue on until about 4am according to Environment Canada.

A record-breaking 15 to 25 centimetres fell in Calgary overnight, CBC meteorologist Christy Climenhaga told the Calgary Eyeopener Tuesday morning. The previous record for Oct. 2 was set in 1954 with only about five centimetres.

"But the all-time extreme record for one day in October is about 30 centimetres in 1914, so you guys are on your way to breaking that," she said.

By 4:30 p.m., parts of the city had reported getting 40 centimetres, the city said in a release.

Saw the snow first time today. It was great and very white!

Thank you in advance!

Whoop! I just updated my resume based on your comments and suggestions. If you still have time, please review again. Thank you!

@scottalanmiller said in Resume check:

First thought...

I never, ever put my address on a resume. That's inappropriate information that has no business being there. It looks foolish, like you aren't considering the audience or security; and it acts as filler and that's bad, too. No business that's legit would ever care where you live. Your metro area, sure. Your street address? Hell no.

I won't put my phone number on either. But lots of people do. But leave off the +1, almost all of North America is a +1. No one in the US or Canada writes that in phone numbers, because all of the US and Canada see the "1" as a long distance code, and they don't write their numbers that way. It flags you as not being a local.

This is really a big help. I've already removed the street address. As for the contact number, I just copied what my Aunt gave to me. HAHA! Anyway, I've changed it now. Thank you @scottalanmiller you're a saver as always.

@pete-s said in Resume check:

I'd cut down or remove the "Part Time Instructor | National College of Business and Arts" section.

Only thing I can think of when reading that, is what kind of real job you had if you could work part time simultaneously.

I'd also put your education last in the list because as an employer I would be more interested to check your skills and where you worked (what kind of projects did you do, what kind of clients) before looking at your education. Just the principle of showing your strongest selling points first. But maybe that's just me.

I actually agree with you. Its just feel so empty putting it at the end page. But anyway, will still move it. Thanks for the feedback!
