Resume Help

Very nicely put Krejaton! Being in the position to hire myself, one thing I like to see is the skill set at the very top. The objective, as (can we call you coach K? haha) Krejaton stated, needs to dazzle in a sentence. Everytime you submit a resume, you need to groom it for that company and position, just as Krejaton suggested. That is some of best advice you could get SI. Also, on your current job, you are speaking in "past tense" Should be "oversee" and "report directly to". You seem to be a highly motivated individual - use that as a selling point. "Bank Reconciliations" without the apstrophe. There are just a few little "booboos" such as not having the "D" capitalized in "Division of Quantas Service". That may seem like knit picking, but attention to detail and being correct could be the difference between getting in that first round of interviews or having your resume tossed in file 13. You have plenty of qualities to sell, make yourself sound like the best thing since sliced bread. Show the confidence you have in yourself to do the job, not arrogance, confidence and why your skills are the best suited for the position and the company! Take Krejaton's advice, and you will knock their socks off!

Mike -- I'm hardly an expert on job hunting, but I can tell you that your punctuation needs some work. Drop the apostrophe(s) from "bank reconciliation's", "...monthly schedule's", "Report's directly...", and "...assist's the store manager".
Make sure you go through it with a fine-toothed comb -- I might have missed some myself. No excuse for grammatical errors on a resume. Just my two cents.

Glad someone read it! Actually, I was hoping it would cheer you up SIHHR - it's no fun to be out of a job. I have worked for 6 companies that all went out of business! (Funny, all the companies I've owned did well and I was able to eventually sell them at a nice profit.)
Get that resume dialed and GET IT OUT THERE!
