Re: Needed: New job

Regarding your resume; remove the irrelevant jobs/info from it and condense down to one page. Unless you are a doctor, lawyer, or some high $$$ executive a resume should always be only 1 page. Also, remove the fancy bubbles and designs and put it in simple black & white Microsoft Word text so a scanner can easily recognize all the characters and also so it can easily be copy/pasted into a text upload box. There are a lot of companies that will toss a resume straight into the trash can if their scanner can't read it. I was taught that unless you're applying for a creative/marketing position your resume should look as boring as possible to not distract anyone from the material, now, with that said, there is nothing wrong with using a nice high quality resume paper if you're actually sending a physical copy in. Your military experience should be moved up near the top with education. With your Army postal experience why not apply for a job with USPS, UPS, etc.?
