Tweaking my resume again

March 30, 2008

It seems like every time I take a class and learn a new software, I am pulling out my resume to update it.   I have not had a job outside the house for many years but I keep my self “fresh” so that if and when the opportunity comes I am ready to get back out there, with experience and knowledge under my belt.  I have to tell you, for me the hardest part of resumes and sending them out are the cover letters.  I struggle with this because I already have all this information in my resume and feel like I am just explaining myself and skills twice.  Believe it or not, sometimes that cover letter can make the deal, or break it!

    Hi Susan

    Great site - I’ve come across it via the showcase. I have a question for you and would really appreciate your help. How do you change the colour of your blog as you’ve done - ie the text, images, bars … it’s great, but how? LOL

    Best wishes
