    I'm not sure. I think it might have been Grogrux something.

    Thanks guys, it was dandorotik.

    This is happening at a horrible time for me. I feel like I'm living in a movie.

    Personally, I think he's a bit overrated. I hear he tends to talk about the Houston Rockets too much during phone consultations.

    :grin:

    If someone needs to use fiverr to market themselves, doesn't seem they are that good at what they do.

    I'm not helping him with ****! ;)

    But seriousely, dandorotik is your guy. And if interested in my input: I'd just advise you to be clear and concise. Make sure that your resume is "skimmable" with buzz/keywords easily noticable. And taylor your resume to each specific position that you apply for.

    Good luck! Companies are definetly hiring qualified professionals - Especially in the Houston area.

    Absolutely- the whole point is to tell "them" what they want to hear- but you have 3 general audiences for resumes- recruiters, hiring authorities/managers, and HR professionals. You have to do 2 things- emphasize qualifications relevant to the positions you seek, and make sure to address/negate any red flags. And please, none of this "I'm a self-starting team player with excellent oral and written communication skills who can facilitate decision-making to achieve top-priority objectives." :rolleyes:
