Does posting a resume on this site help? Nam TIA - Oldie

I've been wondering that as well - prettyoldtoo

but what has been holding me back is that if they are allowing scammers to post job ads on these sites then perhaps the scammers would have access to our resumes as well.

Good point. I wonder if it would actually get any responses. Nm - Oldie

I have gotten a response from the job wanted ad. Not so sure of the resume.

It helped, but also may have hurt (sm) - Rose

I have had 2 responses to my resume from two different MTSOs. The last I didn't respond based on reviews on the Company Board.

These days it is very difficult due to the scammers who use legitimate businesses ID to get your resume. My email was recently hacked, but I don't know if that was from posting it on my resume here or from a resume I sent out, as one turned out to be a scammer. They also stole the ID of a business woman in NC and the hack to my email came from NC.

Posting Your Resume On This Board
Feb 18, 2010

I was wondering if anyone on this board has posted a resume on this board and their employer saw it.  I want to post my resume, but I do not want to feel the rath of my employer if they found out or saw it listed on this board.  I need my job right now,but I also need to feed my family, and no longer wish to be the MT who is understanding and sitting at the computer all day. So, I guess what I am asking is can I post my resume and leave my name off it somehow? Has anyone posted their ...

For Those Who Need A Resume Or A Resume Facelift

I'm looking to get out of my job in a bad way and my resume was less than pretty. I ran across this site and it was awesome.  It's free to update your resume but charges to print or email, copy, etc.  But for a cover letter and resume was only $2.95 but will auto-renew at $34 if you don't cancel within 2 weeks.  But I did the trial period and got an awesome resume and fantastic cover letter. It's easy to use and fun. Hope this helps a little bit.  http:// ...

Question Regarding Resume
Nov 19, 2009

I have a question and maybe someone out there knows the answer.  I have a resume which I created on Word.  I would generally send it as an attachment to an e-mail; however, I'm finding that recruiters for some reason are requesting the resume be pasted into the e.mail.  If I do that, I lose my formatting on the resume and the text gets all messed up. Does anyone know of a solution?  I feel really dumb! Thanks!   ...

I have had six radiology transcriptiion jobs in 25 years.  I had one on-site job for 10 years and the other 15 years at home.   I can easilly explain what my duties were when I was on site.
