For example I add my resume when the app. asks for past experance, with the app. explaining my past experance of course. Also I was thinking about including a passport photo, I mean, I have them might as well use them....

I wouldn't add a photo unless they requested it. Just my opinion...

I haven't added any photos and don't think I would even if I had some. I have however added my resume. Sometimes there's not enough room to expand on my activities and other places they ask for different information that's all listed on my resume. I fill in what I can but I ask them to please see my resume for more information.

for people adding their resume, are you keeping it at 1 page like a job one?

its really not a resume if its more than one page..... becomes a CV at that point.

I didn't realize resumes are only supposed to be a page. How is that possible with people who've done a ton of stuff? I guess I would call mine a CV then and what I've sent out is about three pages.

Me too. My CV/resume is about 3 pages. I don't think I could fit everything onto 1 page unless I used 3 point font!

That's what I was thinking and my husband even has ten more years of experience than I do.

I've had this discussion with educators in oklahoma for 4 years now. Most don't understand that you need to send everything you've accomplished. If it goes beyond 1 page then let it go. I've been denied interviews because my resume was to long, however they probably didn't read it and already had their brother in law in line for the job.

Bottom line is include everything on your cv/resume you will get more job interviews than you will lose "I know I don't want to work for someone who doesn't want to read more than one page."

My resume for AZ-COM and C-COM was only one page long. I only listed interesting/ relevant activities. I have interviewed at both, and have been accepted at AZ-COM thus far.

I didn't add a photo to mine, because it wouldn't be fair to other applicants.

hey tex what was the ou vs texas score?

 

[TexasTriathlete]

It will probably end up being 1-0 Texas after the NCAA busts OU for something else.

Before ou texas game http://www.statesman.com/sports/content/sports/stories/longhorns/10/06/1006bohls.html
Greg in Moncrief-Neuhaus:Yes, it will. The Longhorns will develop a downhill running attack, Colt will complete every pass, Charles will inject himself into the Heisman race, Limas Sweed will catch about a dozen balls, and our, uh, the streak will be three in a row. Mack promised me.
Bob: Are you hitting the cough syrup again? That's the biggest myth of all. OU will crush Texas 38-17 if not worse and unfortunately give it an identity it doesn't want. Mack will not win another conference title. Colt will get hurt. And the Horns' slide will continue. Can you say Sun Bowl?

Tex you making reservations for the Sun Bowl?

Don't get me started on Greg Davis.
