“There has also been a lot of spin about how long or short a resume should be. From my perspective as a recruiter, a resume should be as long as necessary. For example, a candidate with five years’ experience should not require a 3-page resume. Or, a candidate with 18 years’ experience should not be reduced to a 1-page resume. Length of resume depends entirely on each individual situation. There is no formula or rule etched in stone. If a recruiter is working with a Ph.D. candidate, then a resume may be 3, 4 or 5 pages, or even longer. So be it. If it’s relevant, promote it. If you’re pontificating, don’t.”

Who is your EZINE Really From?
One morning this past fall, I was going through my e-mail inbox, relentlessly deleting junk mail. As you’re likely well aware, many spam messages are made to look like they’re from a real person. One name briefly caught my eye: “Jeff Bezos.” But because I was in furious deletion mode, I didn’t recognize it. Also, it had a salesy subject line: “New Apparel Store Now Open.” So I hit the delete key. A few minutes later, it occurred to me that I knew that name — Jeff Bezos is the CEO of Amazon.com. I rescued the message from my delete folder and opened it. Turns out it was an announcement to all Amazon Associates (affiliates) about the opening of Amazon’s new online apparel store.
