@scottalanmiller pretty sure i will suggest ML.

Something always pops up.

@unwiseapple said in Resume Review:

I would hope so, as others have looked at this for years and didn't think to virtualize it. It is a process that i directly greatly improved, among others in the company.

Based on the assumption that the next company will also not be aware that everything should be virtualized? I don't think that this conveys the value that you think that it does.

Let me see if I can make an analogy. It's like working at a trucking firm and you figure out that you can lengthen the lifespan of the engines in the trucks my replacing the oil filter regularly. You don't put that on your resume. It doesn't showcase your value, it just tells future employers how badly the last place you were, was. Not something that you want them to be aware of, because you want them to think that you excelled in a good, challenging environment. Not that you excelled by getting them up to a normal baseline. You want the last job to sound good, raise yourself up by raising them up, not be knocking them down.

I'm here now! 😄

1.) Suggestion on how will i start, I keep reading, but I still don't know where to start 😵

SAD is a class about designing software systems. So you need to determine two things, I would assume:

What is the software design that you will be designing? What are the expected set of deliverables that you will be turning in?

Things that I would expect are likely to be turned in might be:

Use Case Documents UML Diagrams Technology Documents and Descriptions Overall Project Collateral

Thank you, I will be doing this after I finalize my Network Design,

Told a friend about this. He's a year or so younger than me and has a four-year degree but is pretty much brand new to IT. We will see if he posts. 🙂

I generally am more concerned about Google Docs or Pages, rather than Word. 😛

One could say that he Excels at it.

For instance a female is twice as likely, as a percentage of the populations, to get raped in Canada as they are in the US.

How did you find that? The listed numbers listed it as "rate", which means that the percentage of population is already considered. So how did it get to twice, conflicting with teh posted rate?

On the next page there is a heading for Rape Victims. I think I might be mistaken on what it actually is referring to though.

Right, I was trying to figure out the difference between Rape rate and Rape victims.

In the original list they used rate, which is the important one.

Right, agreed rate is the important one.

http://www.nationmaster.com/country-info/stats/Crime/Rape-victims

So what is the significance of this one? Ah this may have been a surveyed question. Which explains the difference.

Not sure, but it's definitely female only and male rape is totally discounted. That's not a huge number, it it is a skew.

Welcome to the community mate

Hey - what did I ever do to you? 😛

Note: I held my tongue on this one.

Good, cause I wasn't talkin' to you anyhow 😉

And that usually stops me when? I was being nice because I know you are jet lagged.

To enable the developer tab, you go to

File > Options > Customize Ribbon > ✓ "Developer"

Exit this window and go to a new email, and then select the developer tab. From within this tab you can modify the fields.

@John-Nicholson said in Anonymous Resume Review:

20 network printers - Printer support is one of the lowest tiers of IT pay. Saying you worked somewhere too poor to outsource it (or have a tier 1 bench guy to deal with it) implies lower wages.

Or implies that that entry level bench person was.... you.

This is an absolute truth.

Learn to remember all of the things, and you're golden.

@scottalanmiller Your stance on IT job titles seems at variance with your stance on the English language. It seems that you want a level of flexibility in language that you're unwilling to extend to titles. My experience in SMB, and annecdotally, is that a SysAdmin is what most SMBs call your IT Generalist. The SMB job market has designated a skill set and assigned it a title. Whether it is technically accurate, or matches the enterprise is not really germane to an individual's ability to get hired in the SMB, or get paid in a manner commensurate with skills and experience. If I put down IT Generalist as my title/position sought I will get slated for helpdesk positions. The "correctness" of the title is no longer relevant to the discussion. You are fighting against the same things that I am with the language overall, and we're both losing.

@Carnival-Boy said in Resume Feedback:

It's looking good. I'd space it out a bit and increase the size of the margins rather than shrinking it to one page as I'm finding it a little crowded. It's a great resume that deserves two pages 🙂

If you have to go over one page, definitely work to keep the text tight but do as CB says and spread it out. Make it as short as possible, then expand to fill pages with good white spacing.
