Review My Resume – New Service, New Blog

I’ve launched a new service called Review My Resume, with an accompanying blog. The service is to provide “sober second look” reviews of resumes, to weed out any of the errors that can cause your resume to be immediately overlooked. These errors are extremely difficult to find for the person writing the resume, and it is always valuable to have a fresh set of eyes to find those hard to spot problems.

Beyond simply reviewing for errors, we will provide tips and suggested copy modifications to optimize the submitted resume. Note that no changes will be done to the resume itself; only a list of suggested changes will be remitted back to the sender.

Accompanying this service will be a work-related blog. The main focus will be optimizing job search techniques and resume hints and tips, but any career related information of value that we find will be post. Have a look!

    I like it–couldn’t find the RMR blog, though. Do you have a link? And good choice with Mambo–it’s what I use for the FinAidPro.com site too…

    Hi Bren, thanks for dropping by! Yes, I’m using Mambo for the RMR site, and I suppose I’m using the term “blog” a bit loosely. I’m using the standard CMS functionality in Mambo to post new articles, and I’m using an RSS component and module called RSSXT to produce a full-text html feed. That same component also pings all the usual suspects when new posts are added. So, the only thing that is really missing (and granted, it’s a big thing) is the ability to comment on posts. I intend to use a slightly unusual approach to that; instead of traditional blog comments, I intend to install a forum that will allow for new threads to be created for any post that receives a comment. This is how I run another site, http://www.beerleaguehockey.com, and it works quite well.

    Thanks for your note, and your wonderful blog! Slacker Manager was definitely one of the inspirations for me to get RMR really going. Take care.

    Hi Jason, I wasn’t able to access your link for “reviewmyresume.com”. None the less, I very much like your thoughts about a “sober second look” to someone’s resume.

    To that end, I’ve recently founded Razume, a resume review community at http://www.Razume.com. We’ve made it easy for users to anonymously post, rate and review resumes for free. You can even request feedback from the experts. Give it a try, I’m interested to hear your thoughts about our growing community.

    Best,
    Sam
