The past two collaborative posts I’ve coordinated (Perspectives on a Career in Technical Writing and 40 Foundational Books) have been successful, drawing a well-rounded variety of responses. I hope to continue collaborative posts, I hope with one new collaborative post a week. Here’s the topic for this week:

A reader asks,

Is my resume so awful that no one will hire me? I mean, I’d been laid-off so long it’s pitiful really.

With permission, his resume is here.

Add your response to this open Google document. At the end of the week I’ll compile the responses into a blog post. Thanks for participating.
