Hello Lemonaders!

Just came across this website http://miamiflonthecheap.com/2009/07/13/free-resume-copies-faxing/. Apparently all Office Depot locations are offering up to 25 free copies of your resume. You can also fax your resume to up to 5 domestic numbers. Enjoy!

Hello Lemonaders!

One of my biggest pest peeves when I'm interviewing someone is when they have no questions to ask me. I mean, I have to wonder: was the person so thorough in their research that they couldn't possibly come up with ONE question to ask? Doubtful. Asking questions shows that you're truly interested in that company and in that job. More importantly, it helps you gather information that will help you decide whether or not you want the job. So many job seekers forget that interviews are a two-way street...you may ask a few questions and realize "my values don't really match with this company." So please take the to jot down some good questions. Click here for a good article on asking good questions.
