Curious, what writing service did you use?

################

Go Resume. Not very expensive and has proven its worth over and over. I work serial contract jobs, so just one good hit is not enough; I need repeat and new business all the time.

I find the new style of resumes obnoxious. They are barely literate, are boastfully extreme, and stuffed with buzzwords, but most are initially screened by computers so the awkward new style does work.

If someone finds themselves stalled out while shopping a classic resume around, I’d advise them to give such services a try.


Thank you for the information. When son was graduating and unable to find a position, I found a resume writer...not cheap, but effective :) Always good to have some names for the Rolodex—OOPS dating myself LOL

I was thinking I should.

I retired, taking a package, two years ago when my Center Manager took a package. It was unforeseen as I loved doing the work. Thanks to my beloved’s planning we were in good shape. January 2019 is the start of my SS. Yea!

Back to Rolodexes... I am very old school and believed strongly in using multiple ways of documentation storage. Rolodexes came in very valuable, and not just for names and #s. Folks who knew me knew exactly which Rolodex to go looking for depending on what exactly they wanted. LOL

Even in my retirement I am still using Rolodexes! There is absolutely nothing wrong with using old school systems. If I lose my phone, I still have it all backed up on paper. If I lose my paper documentation there is the electronic back-up. For really sensitive stuff, there’s still other systems. LOL

I admit when I rummage through my Rolodexes, I so enjoy the feeling of seeing information at my fingertips!
