polls

The most accurate poll I've conducted so far this year (probably). Read on to find out why that is, but first... The poll results and what they mean Here are the official results of the poll: [poll id="7"] 86% You did it alone Not much surprise here, you probably wrote your own resume too. 8% Someone else (mostly) This poll answer could have been clearer, but I think voters did understand that it was for the case where the main writer of your resume wasn't you or a professional resume writer. Perhaps it was a family member, a friend, a school counselor, a job search coach, a career center staffer, etc. When I found my job at Amazon, a friend helped translate translated my resume into French. He did a great job, and the result was memorable in a completely unintentional but positive way- there were some Quebecois expressions that got a chuckle from French recruiters.
