Stupid Question
So in a resume, is one supposed to put education or employment history first?UPDATE: Yes, I was applying for jobs today, over the Internet! I'm not going to violate the confidentiality of the companies to which I applied, but rest assured: there are some pretty big names included. I'll probably look into temp agencies, too. Last time I signed up with Manpower, I scored as a "master user" of Microsoft Word and Excel, and I've only gotten better since then -- I'm sure I'll be "Demi-God" if not outright "God" by now.
And then, God willing, I'll be able to work for faceless corporations, doing boring work that requires little more than a warm body with rudimentary skills, with no hope for advancement (i.e., God willing, I'll find some adjunct work doing a summer intro to philosophy course).
Unless ... unless people start donating a lot of money to me. If you or someone you know is a wealthy benefactor or would like to get in on the prestigious field of wealty benefaction, feel free to contact me or just click on the PayPal link located on the right hand sidebar.
