Amber commented on Penelope's blog post 'The job boards are dead. Long live the job boards!'"We use any resource we can to find candidates, including job boards. Even clients who could and do use boards cannot "find" people. I don't know why, but I suspect it's often a time issue. And sometimes I use them to get…"

Why you shouldn’t try to stand out from the crowd on your CV
Posted on January 22, 2013 at 5:36am 0 Comments 0 Likes
The fashion for the creative CV is dead, and overly zealous attempts to spice yours up may give the impression that you’re facetious or, worse, a rampant individualist.
Perhaps Photoshop is to blame. The visual revolution boomed, infographics became our new best friends, and, all of a sudden, the HR department wanted in on the action, too. For some time, urban wisdom had it that the one thing you should really aim…

Penelope,
Thanks for the nice note. Hope your're right and the economy picks back up for you, as you hope. Here, there's an impending sense of doom about Europe with all the countries is fiscal disarray/debt. With high taxes, debt, the need for austerity most Europeans abhor combined with a poor US economy overspending and not creating many middle/upper middle class private sector jobs right along with Europe one wonders if we're about to hit bottom, or starting a sincere descent into something much worse.
And thanks for that nice poem. Silent perseverence in hard times, something Europeans over the centuries have been superb at, is the key. Willingness to start again. My grandparents knew hard times in Romania and what's now Moldova, Russia coming to the US a little over 100 years ago starting over here knowing only Yiddish coming with just about only the clothes on their backs.
Best Regards,Bill
