ah, didn't notice that. Why'd ya drop out after 7 semesters?

I had a lot of credits from architecture that didn't mean anything for other majors, and my last two semesters have been a bust. Better to leave willingly than get kicked out IMO.

Your resume should always be one page long and short. Keep the novel for your interview. Whenever I've had my hand in the hiring phase I've always appreciated people who can keep it short and save me some time.

Also a picture of you goatse'ing is always a surefire hit.

In light of recent descusion about resume length, I've decided to update my resume, yet still keeping concise -- who I am, what I do, where I'm from.

I trimmed fat, i threw the comiccon job as first, added the two major films ive worked on. Hows it looking? although admittedly i dont feel like much changed

I also need to start thinking about a cover letter.

A textbook I used recently had a section on writing resumes; I scanned it and sent it your way, assuming the e-mail you included in your draft is correct.

And for the job seeking of TNL, here is a tip that was brought up in one of my prepare-for-the-workforce classes:

Just after your interview, write a concise hand-written thank you note. Use the address from the business card they give you. Within it, go over a few of your important assets that would benefit the position. Get it in the mail immediately. After I got the job, my interviewer later told me that it was the best thank you letter she had received all year. It's just another small detail to set you apart from the pack.

my resume is just over one page, its like one and a fourth page long, I had to go onto a second page b/c my job history expanded. I pretty much feel like if you want to show that there were no gaps in unemployment you might not care if it goes over to another page. Its not like i have many jobs in my life either, so is 1 1/4 of a page too long?

You can't trim that shit to 1 page? I'll be honest the majority of my profession is portfolio, but I know a 1 pager means you can pair down your shit. Is all of the work you've put on your resume relevant? And is it recent? If you have 5 of the same job-types for a position I'd put the most recent 3 down and trim the others.
