National Edge Technologies is a consulting firm and solution provider specializing in business information systems. Is your resume good enough? Well if it's REALLY BAD recruiters won't even call you about opportunities. If it's just OKAY you'll be chosen for some positions but not others. Remember, the first step in getting a job is competing against other GOOD resumes. You've worked hard to make your skills marketable combining education and experience therefore it's extremely important to look as good on paper as you do in person. For a short time we at National Edge are establishing a "resumehelper" division that will utilize the abilities of some of our recruiters to improve sentence structure, grammar, font, spacing or the overall general presentation of your resume. The resume will become easier to read and make your qualifications as obvious as possible. Who better to improve your resume than the people who get paid to find you a position? When your resume is completed it will be added to our database and you will be sent a copy that you are free to use with any company you wish. All we ask is that you send us $99 to pay for the time of our recruiters and we can get started on your resume. The $99 is not refundable because as I mentioned we have to pay for our recruiter's time. I will say however that companies that specialize in resumes charge between $250 and $400 dollars for this service and are very good at what they do. However, our goal is to get your resume up to a standard that will give you a chance at all future opportunities that match your skillset. This "resumehelper" division may only be available for a short time and if we have closed it by the time you send payment we will return your 99$. Please send payment to www.paypal.com and an email to me Anthony Willett awillett@nationaledge.com titled resumehelper. HOW TO SEND MONEY (user must create PayPal account first) Sending Money - To send a payment, login to your PayPal account and click the "Send Money" tab. Just enter the awillett@nationaledge.com email address and the amount. You can pay with a CREDIT CARD, or funds already in your PAYPAL ACCOUNT. THIS IS NOT A GUARANTEE OF WORK. Sincerely, Anthony Willett awillett@nationaledge.com www.nationaledge.com

Quite the make-work project for your recruiters. Have you found that your recruiters are sitting around with nothing to do, or has you company simply run out of prospective clients that will use a pay-per-view recruiting agency, with all of the alternative professional services available. Anyone considering this "offer" should check their own network of friends, family, and collegues to critique their resume, you may find you have the resources you need in your own backyard. Failing that, there are dozens of real recruiting agencies in this city, with recruiters that WILL make recommendations on improving your resume, without expecting remuneration. The one's with their hand out, just to make you more marketable, should realize that the marketing is supposed to be THEIR job, we're the hired guns who get their projects put to bed to make them look good. Anthony Willett should be ashamed for authoring this predatory solicitation.

I agree. Don't waste money on "resume consultants". In hiring technology staff, it's the qualifications that matter. Fancy layouts, wonky fonts, and nice paper don't make up for the lack of qualifications. No manager ever said "Hey, this person doesn't have the needed skills. But, let's interview him because he has a nice looking resume." /Norm "IT Consultant" <anITConsultant@noreply.com> wrote > Quite the make-work project for your recruiters.
