Two resume recommendations were sent in this morning from an obviously frustrated marketing executive:

1) Email address – Not great to use lovesbeer@ISPnamechanged.com. (Use a neutral email address for your job search. Lovesbeer@ definitely does not convey responsibility. Note: I wrote about this issue in last month’s newsletter.)

2) The resume file name should be the applicant’s name, not initials or Lisa’s quest for a new job, or resume version 12. Name it correctly with your first and last name, so a potential employer will be able to find it quickly during a document search.
