what’s this blog for if you already have a site www.theresumemagazine.com

the blog is put thoughts in one place.

the blog is to make the I thoughts into WE thoughts.

I lose so much because I cant find it again.  i had it, then i don’t have it anymore.  that prompted me to create this blog.

since i can email, text or whatever else I want (including desktop offline blog editors) I am going to use this is a place to store all the thoughts, works in progress and completed stuff too for www.theresumemagazine.com

www.theresumemagazine.com is conceived as the one place where you can get and learn about making a resume that wins you jobs.  as with everything else, I start, every time I tackle one little thing, i create a list of 10 other things that I should also tackle.

those things go here.

you are invited to participate.

see a topic that I am working on, see my notes, feel free to direct me, add on to the thoughts and ask more questions.  I promise to do everything I can towards that.

there then, the rationale for this blog.

as for why www.theresumemagazine.com because frankly I get a lot of resumes that just don’t look right or read right.  when the resume does not stack up, the individual may not be given a chance to.  hence the site.

please feel free to drop me a note on admin@theresumemagazine.com for anything whatsoever.

cheers!
