Updating The Résumé
I spent a chunk of last night working on updating my résumé... it's been seven years since I've last redrafted one and my old one was in bad need of an update.
I've absorbed much résumé advice over the years: some advice is solid ("craft it for the job you want, not the one you have") while some of it contradictory ("never exceed one page" vs. "you're not applying at McDonald's so 2-3 pages is fine"). At the moment, I'm still sifting through my activity reports of the past five years or so to distill a small list of good examples of project management, staffing coordination and management ability, but I hope to have a largely finished product by the end of the weekend.
Does anyone have any recommended web sites on résumé construction? I'm open to additional ideas on formatting and style.
