Hey G – aren;t I the one with the guitar? Someone recently asked a great question about our recruiting process. But before we even get started on that topic, I thought I would take you back – way back – to the beginning. That;s right – the dreaded RESUME. There are a few key tips to making sure your resume gets noticed by recruiters; whether you submit through our site or if we find you through other methods. Concise – keep it short and to the point. Tell us about your accomplishments as well as your responsibilities. Don;t spend a lot of time talking about strategy, the product, or the company. Make it easy for us to understand what you contributed and what the results were of your efforts. If you are submitting your resume through our site, you have the option of customizing your resume based on the position for which you apply. Take advantage of this to highlight your strengths against that position! If you list a technology,Office 2007 Key, be clear as to how you used it. For example,Office 2007 Ultimate Key, "knowing C++" is not the same as "created an application using C++". Spell out acronyms and explain code names where appropriate. Eliminate outdated technical or business skills. I don't want to know every technology you have ever worked on,Office 2010 Home And Business Key, espcially if you're really rusty. Indicate whether or not you are open to relocation. Most of our positions are in Redmond, WA so it is good for us to know if you would consider moving for the opportunity.

Often times if you submit your pretty word document through our site, it gets reformatted when it gets dumped into the database.
