5/26/09 - Managing Imperfect Resumes - with this great reader comment "Jack Hill wrote:You’re fighting the wrong battle. If you are relying on key words or other tricks to get noticed, you’ve already lost. You should be getting in the door with personal contacts and recommendations — via LinkedIn or off-line means. Then it’s “Oh, by the way, we need a resume for the file.” The deal should be closed before they even take a look. That’s how CEOs and other big fish operate. Relying on HR people, or their systems to pick you out of an ocean of resumes is like playing the lottery.".
