ResumeMaker Career Edition

3 stars (Dissapointed with the Resume Maker Software) - I recently purchased this software from Amazon, and I've been experiencing technical problems from the moment it was installed on my computer. I am using the program at work, on my brand new Dell system, and it just won't act right! The print preview function creates error messages, and when I printed my resume the software placed weired lines and boxes on my resume. I've contacted tech support, and they are unsure as to what the problem might be. They've asked me to switch printers, remove the software, and then install the software. We've been going back and forth for about 2 weeks. I've used a previous edition of Resume Maker and I had technical problems with the software, but I assumed it was because my computer was a bit older. As for the content of the software, I do feel that it offers some useful information. You are provided with a resume coach, with tips on the types of resume that may suit you. I'm giving this product 3 stars because of the quality of the software. 2 stars (Disappointed by poor quality software...) - I was very disappointed by this software. Sure it has some good features (that's why I gave 2 instead of 1) but the built in word processor is terrible (Nope, I was not expecting another MS Word but at least expected consistency between various features/parts of the software). One of the supposedly great features of Resumemaker is the ability to preserve some general formatting if you choose to (e.g.) send the resume as plain text (an important thing mind you) in an e-mail. It does so by offering a number of styles for formatting your Resume. For example, for the Summary section, you can choose a bulleted list as formatting style. Resumemaker would create one card for each bullet item you create. If you send the Resume as plain text in an e-mail, Resume maker would format each of these bullet items with a * in front. This is all nice and good, but for Rich Text Formats, you lose th...

Resumes And Cover Letters For Dummies

3 stars (Maybe it's me, but...) - Maybe it's me, but I don't think there should be a book out there teaching dumb people how to get jobs. We work with enough dummies everyday, do we really want more of them clogging the HR pipeline? That said, the book is probably well written, and would make an excellent addition to Getting Off Welfare For Dummies. ...

It was well worth the investment, and I will try to convince others the same! 5 stars ( Resume Maker Professional 11 ) - By using the " Resume Maker Professional 11 " I was able to successfully obtain a Federal job that I don't think I could have otherwise obtained. All ten modules were extremely informative and professional in helping me prepare a resume that adequately reflected my skills, talent and expertise. Also, by using the "Salary Finder" I was able to negotiate a satisfactory salary. By keeping all my records and information in this one file on the CD, the data is readily available whenever I need it. I recommend the "Resume Maker" to anyone interested in improving their profession skills whether they are looking for a change in employment or not. Respectfully, Robert J. May 2 stars (Not Updated) - The best part of this program is that it offers a variety of formats to use to write your resume. However, if you dare use the "Resume Caster" option, you'll get your email address sent to many different online employment agencies that will then send you job offers that are not even in your field. The end result is that you have a whole new set of spammers flooding your email box constantly. In addition, the salarie...
