If you weren't getting any interviews for over six months there are major issues with your resume.

It was annoying that I had to scroll all the way down for the answer. I'm guessing since he thinks he has a master's that he'll magically get an executive position and that's what he is going for. I'd be interested in seeing his resume.

Resume is doing two undergrad degrees and an MBA back-to-back and "high complexity laboratory testing experience" is being a PCR monkey and the 6 years includes undergrad lab projects.

Youโ€™d be surprised at how awful the resumes are of presumably educated people. People just donโ€™t understand at all how to make a resume. 6 pages of unorganized double spaced rambling about past positions goes straight in the trash. And the thing is Iโ€™ve interviewed people with bad resumes in the past and I wouldnโ€™t hire them! I tried to be charitable and I couldnโ€™t. I donโ€™t even need to read it. If your resume looks shitty it goes in the trash.

I always got interviewed but decided to have a professional redo mine and she ripped into it lol. She did a nice job.

I had a manager who threw away any resume that had University of Phoenix on it. lol

Low key I do the same. Unless itโ€™s a position that doesnโ€™t require any schooling at all. Same with Grand Canyon university. Especially after I learned that my crazy schizo neighbor has been working on getting an online PhD in education at GCU for the past ten years.

There's so many of these schools out there now. On one of my private forums, these crazy r-slurred lady who claims to be a lawyer has Devry on her resume.

I thought GCU was real for awhile since I only saw their commercials during college football games. Itโ€™s actually really sad. My neighbor is a legit schizo (believes people are crawling around in her walls and shit) and always super stressed about finishing her phd and how much debt sheโ€™s in. No one can do anything though because sheโ€™s lucid enough to take care of herself, but it definitely feels like sheโ€™s being taken advantage of.

He thinks he's too good to start low and pay his dues, I'm sure.

Youโ€™d be surprised actually just how out-of-touch folks are with what employers are looking for in candidates. They think itโ€™s all about coming off as smart as possible, which means their resumes come off as fricking insufferable.

I got hired to a job a bit back that required a PhD in economics (I have 2/3s of a masters and got hired out of grad school), and after I got hired, we made fun of nerds and they showed me the cover letters they were getting. I canโ€™t go too specific and risk outing myself, but the job was created to make a model in a year. You know what I told them? I could make it in a year. You know what Drs such-and-such told them? That a perfect model would take five years. That their dissertation took as long and this would be an even bigger challenge. That they were nervous but were willing to try.

Anyway I finished the model in two months and occasionally get high in my office to rake up the unlimited overtime when Iโ€™m not working on my own business during work hours. My employers couldnโ€™t be happier. Iโ€™m not a genius or anything but it was clear from the get go the position wasnโ€™t created internally, so they just wanted someone their higher-ups would find passable that they wouldnโ€™t have to babysit.
