@trib I don’t see how making prospective employer look at CV the way I want, instead of how they want it, will get me in their good graces.

@trib I just scanned those posts and don’t see LinkedIn mentioned in any way.

@trib If you want a job you need to be able to give the prospective employer what they want. If you’re defiant you’ll look unattractive.

@trib That’s a good way to lock yourself out of many jobs.

@debhuff Mine has always been 2 pages with bullet points. I actually have a nice format but I’ve been using it for a while and may change.

@trib @debhuff Besides, here (in the USA) nobody asks you for a .pdf version of your resume. They always ask for a Word version.

@trib @debhuff The .pdf export is nice but plain. And if the person I’m sending it to knows LinkedIn they’ll know I just lifted the format.

I miss the days when the Mets played on channel 9 and they’d show bad movies during rain delays. They’d call it “Rain Delay Theatre”.
