Today, I decided to modify my resume since I've handed out over 30 of them in the past couple of weeks and I haven't gotten any calls back. As soon as I opened it on word document, I noticed that I had forgotten to include my phone number for employers to contact me. FML

I sent my resume by email this year and wrote a bunch of crap in my email about how I pay attention to details. I forgot to attach the resume : /

you're a ******* idiot. faschist communist

HAHA yeah, I did include my e-mail and address. Most of the places I applied were through e-mail (which should be fine but doesn't set a good first impression since I didn't include the most basic information) and some were at retail stores, where they would least likely contact me via e-mail. Yeah, I felt incredibly smart today, LOL!

Nothing makes a petty bottom level manager feel better about themselves than finding faults in a resume. It's the business world equivalent of clicking YDI.

oh goshh burnnn but its ok its not like youre worthless or something man

aw i did the same thing, but i sent incomplete resumes in response to craigslist job wanted ads..so it wasn't a huge deal.

I did a similar thing...except I was linking the wrong cover letter..instead of linking from my harddrive I was linking one I had on my desktop that was specifically written for a graphic design position for toys r us....so essentially I was telling every other potential employer how great Id fit in at Toys r us...LOL.
