resume advice

[av8tortype]

I'm not Resume Writer, but I just gotta give the general pilot populance some advice - snipped -

"populance" ?

 

[English]

Thanks (where's TonyC?) for noticing my spelling error. Good thing this wasn't a resume.

Populace is the correct spelling.

An Eagle Scout is not a boyhood achievement....
According to him, Eagle Scout is not something to be put aside. You earned it!

The scouts are nothing but a bunch of kids that dress like idiots following an idiot that dresses like a kid!!!

 

[Hugh Jorgan]

I'm an Eagle Scout. It took a significant amount of time and dedication for me to achieve that rank.

I don't think you want your interviewer picturing you on your knees in front of the Scout leader....

Or you're gunning for a flight attendant job at American...

 

[BoDEAN]

Do you recommend bringing in a current resume to a job interview? Also, is it ok to have a list of questions to ask them jotted down on a piece of paper?

 

[English]

Definitely bring at least one copy of your resume to an interview, prefereably several copies to hand out to the interviewers if more than one is present.

And, I like those candidates that have questions prepared, although I don't think they need to be read off a paper.

I gotta agree about your commets, English ... but, I would think that knowing a commenly used forgein language would be helpful in an international flight department.

 

[English]

I agree. And I think listing those languages that one speaks fluently is a big plus. However, when combined with the personal attributes, sometimes it gives the wrong picture. Maybe it would be best if just the languages spoken were listed, and the age, height and weight were left off.
