First, thanks for this comment. You're right -- reframing the problem is exactly what I need to do.
I'm now improving my CV as a second strategy while searching for a company I really want to work for. This, as you can imagine, is the hard-yet-necessary part that I've been avoiding.
At this point I'm just posting on a dead thread, but I just wanted to say thanks to everyone. You really helped me.
- tptacek 12y agoSure. Just be careful you're not ratholing. I'm a hiring manager who's unusually bearish about the value of resumes, but even before I was: they were the least important part of our screening process. A good cover letter is much more important than a resume.
- bespoke_engnr 12y agoSorry, could you define 'ratholing'? I'm having trouble imagining my job search as a. covertly taking my chips off the table during a Poker game, or b. living in a small, messy room. Thanks again!
