Why I hate unemployment.

[tyggerjai]

It's not the two days thus far spent half-heartedly playing computer games. That's fine - tomorrow I'll be so over it I'll start doing real stuff.

It's having to update my sodding resume.

So. I'm going to throw it open to you guys. Write me a resume.

For whatever job you think I'd like.

If you have any record of your work history/qualifications, email it to me at vainglorious@aapt.net.au, and I'll do what I can...

Oh, and check out my post re. recruitment contacts in Melbourne - I think Eve Brown would be able to help you.

Oh, thank you!

But I wsn't in any way serious :) Given that my friends are such a ... "creative" bunch, and like to think they're pretty funny, I was hoping for resumes along the lines of my lj bio.

I have a resume, it's only one job out of date, which just means adding one job section and updating the overview. About 30 minutes work, tops, and that's assuming it takes me 20 minutes to think about the overview. I just can't be arsed :)

When I'm done, though, I'll bear Eve Brown in mind - and if you'd care to critique it when I'm done, that'd be useful, I'm sure.

Reading over your post, that was pretty obvious - teaches me to scroll through lj like lightening and post when in too much of a hurry at work.

When you do end up getting your resume together, feel free to send me a copy for tweaking. I tweak well. I tweak very well. :)

You give good tweak, eh? I bet you say that to all the unemployed bums.

I probably need to trim the old jobs (anything before Monash is probably no longer relevant), and decide whether I want to keep the focus on educational stuff. If I keep it, I probably need an "objective" section (though I personally despise them) making it clear that I'm no longer necessarily looking to work in the educational sphere.

See, this is part of the problem. Updating it means making decisions about what I want to do with my life :)
