Dredging for Gold

[ravan]

In resume's, that is. I am astounded at a) how many people can't handle basic singular/plural and tense (trainings, experiences, present instead of past for old jobs), b) how many people have long resumes that say little, and c) how many apparently senior people will apply for a fairly junior job, even though they are currently working in their field. The female to male ratio is a bit dissapointing, too. For a Craigslist advertised job, only two out of 26 seem to be female.

I'm so glad I'm not in recruiting, my eyes would bleed.

My work has all been in Windows & Mac with some ability to mouse around BSD and look at things (if someone will tell me where the things I'm looking for are). If that sounds like something that can be worked with, my resume is available (in multiple formats) here (http://www.twoburrens.com/resume/).
