MODERATORS
They get 30-40 on average. It takes me the better half of the day to review them all. People have work to do; you don't. Customise your resumes for the application and sometimes that means a letter in certain situations goes a long way.
If you're sending out the same resume you spent a few hours doing, week after week, you've done five hours of work in several weeks. You can't expect people working 40 hr work weeks, where reviewing resumes is an addition task, to then start writing personalised responses to every person.
Nah, bullshit, I’m not unemployed. The entire point of a resume is to give you a clear, concise summary of my abilities. You want more details? Ask questions.
Fuck your cover letter.
Fuck your “one way interviews”
That’s bullshit. I work too. Im looking for opportunities, not companies that design their application processes to cater to the people desperate enough to waste 1hr+ of their time for the chance for an actual interview.
Fuck that and fuck you too.
