> [@mp3ray](#): > > Templates are a bad idea. Resumes should stand out, not look like everyone elses. The rule I was taught was 10 years for every 1 page. templates tend to stand out when you type in your own information. i made my own templates, so it’s original from the start. as for hannibal, he didn’t need something too involved so the word templates are good enough. my man was using wordpad with no editing tools or spell check!!! my resume stands out… i worked for 3 years and had a 2 pager and got hired… so i don’t know. i have two resume’s a traditional and a detailed. ---

i think people are misuing the word ‘template’… and i guess it could be me… i’m not talking about a step by step “enter your name:” type thing… i’m more talking frames (like websites) with formatted cells… like whre you type the business it’s 11 pt and italic and where you type the duration it’s in date format 12 pt and bold… know what i’m sayin? i just created the layout and expand it with new jobs. ---

knowing people gets you the job resume just gives the interviewer some questions to ask you interview just lets the interviewer know if you will fit in with the other workers based on my experience. ---

This is pretty much right. Knowing people is _HUGE_ this is the #1 way employers like to fill positions. My past 3 professional jobs were all obtained by my resume/interview. I knew no-one ---
