Online applications - the resume black hole - there are so many things we don't have control over when submitting a resume. There are some things YOU can do to prevent your resume from ending up in cyberspace!!!

You spent hours perfecting a resume. Don't let something as simple as a wrong e-mail address or wrong zip code, keep it from reaching its destination. Here are a few things to check to make sure your resume gets to the right destination.

How to Make Sure Your Resume Arrives

Hmm, really helpful Dianne. Sometimes in the rush to apply to this great job we are looking for, we actually do miss out on these simple things while posting our resume.

It's very interesting when submitting an application electronically, when people call to ask why they didn't get a call back for an interview, sometimes we ask if they ever received that little confirmation e-mail acknowledging receipt - no they didn't.

It really is the little things - we get excited about finding the perfect job post and dash off our resume so they can get it immediately - only to find something as "small" as the wrong address when it comes back undeliverable.
Especially with e-mail...yikes!!!
Thanks for posting!!!
