Question:
I have an A+ cert and am working on my CCNA right now.
Plan on doing the CCNP after the CCNA.
I wish to get that entry level job so often coveted by no one.
Are there any examples of resumes I could make for myself with my
qualifacations?
I am currently pursuing an MBA in Info science management as well.
But I want to get into the technical side of things specifically
networking.
Any ideas or tips would be greatly appreciated.
Answer:
-just search the net there are about 18 gadzillion posted out there.
mine is 3 pages long
many say it's too long but it works.
I say if the person does not have 5 minutes to read it then they don't have 5 minutes for me..
Get hold of a journo student and let them help you .
-I am 47 years old, have been in this business for 17 years,
and like to think I have a fairly impressive resume. But, I
draw the line at two pages for my resume.
Remember that a employer may have, say, 50 resumes to go
over on the day that he goes over yours. His time is just as
valuable to him as yours is to you. So, do him a favor. Do
your homework. Check out the company's web page, print
out their listing for the job you want, then boil your resume
down to two pages which accentuate those qualifications
of yours for which they are specifically looking. Three
pages is okay as long as the first one is a _brief_
cover letter.
Wait until a face to face interview to expand on your
qualifications.
