I print my resumes exclusively on old parchment from the late 1800′s (1888-1897) because I find it has the best “tooth”.

It goes to the blind obedience of obeying ‘absolute rules” when it comes to resumes. Rules about resume paper, and other so-called “resume rules”, get burned into people’s mind. Unfortunately, most the rules do not make a whole lot of difference and I am pretty sure most companies are not summarily eliminating people over paper choice.

Content is far more important. You can have great paper, but if you have lousy content, forget it. Ultimately, you need to know what gets interviews.

Not only that, it actually is on subject. Smart spam. It’s both smart and smarmy. It wears a mask of friendly helpfulness – but it’s a thin mask, barely concealing the overpowering arrogance of someone who believes that NONE OF US could construct a resume without the assistance of “Resume Builder”. I, for one, am not deceived.
