Adulthood Blows

I practiced writing a resume in Careers last year, but I have yet to write a real one.

You just have to word it in a way that sounds impressive, so instead of saying you've been a stay at home mum, you say you have extensive experience working in child care.

I wonder if I can write "A good lay," on mine.

Hihi! And put writing fan fiction as "Creative Writing" or something :love:

Yeah, I'll try next year, when all my pups are in school. Hopefully they will not see it as a blank period but as a life enriching experience.

PS: Roto, depends on the job you are going for... And how cute the interviewer is ;)

See, I considered trying that, but people kept giving me this look...

Try putting "Administrator of Internet Forum" on it.

Roto, I suggest putting "works well with others", "great multitasker", and "not afraid to go where most people won't go ever." down under the skills section.

I don't think "not afraid to go where most people won't go ever" would be appropriate for an elementary school teacher resume.

I gave out like a dozen resumes today! Got one interview so far.

I have one but it needs to be updated. Nothing really interesting on it.

I made a resume my freshman year, had to submit it to get the internship at the Capitol. :\ I'm not sure if that's how a resume was supposed to look, but it got me the job so. xD

Nope. I'm 13. I wonder if you'd even need one for the career I'm pursuing.

Prostitution?

I have one that I wrote for college scholarships. It could be more impressive, I suppose, but I think it has some eye catching things on it.

No, soloist.

I am graduating in BS Agriculture and Astronomy in 2 months, I have yet to make a resume. :O

Agriculture and Astronomy ? Where can you work, on a Mars farm ?

j/k, I have done 2 years of Astronomy myself before graduating on EE
