'Just Rewards (2)'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Strega, I have seen resumes that are entirely skill focused and then mention jobs tangentially, which is how mine is.
So I talk about what I do in terms of curriculum, student support, parent involvement, staff development, then I talk about school.
Could you do something similar? What X skills do you have. Then do project with blurb about the project and specifics as they relate to that project.
last night's TDS interview had what sounded like a fascinating book on the Glorious Revolution of 1688--I'll try and get that from the library this summer
That did sound really interesting. That was the part of the Baroque Cycle that was most intriguing to me, probably because it's an era I haven't studied. I should remind myself to read it somehow...
Should I include a one-sentence desription of the project, like, "a survey of whatever among 5000 respondents nationwide"? Should I mention who the client was? Does arranging it this way make sense, or does anyone have a better idea?
I would say yes to the one-sentence description, and name the client if it's impressive, and/or you have relationships with people there. I mean, basically whatever makes you sound best, without overstating.
WTF? My DVR didn't record TDS or Colbert last night. Today is Thursday, right?
Yep--I still have one more day of work tomorrow, sadly enough.
My DVR said they were re-runs even though they were not. They should be on again at 8, right?

Bad Tivo, no biscuit!
You can still get the 8/8:30 repeats, at least.
[eta: I guess that means I should check mine too!]
"I am Strega!"
If the world was right, that's all you'd have to write down.
I'm sorry I'm no help, the last time I wrote up my resume, I think I did so on an IBM selectric.
I like Kat's skills based approach, listing all the thing you want them to know you can do and under those list the projects that you used them on. Within that, a one sentence summary of the project would be helpful, I think.
Timelies all!
Aaah! It's two weeks to our con! Please remind me not to panic over things I am not responsible for.(Like that'll happen)
