As with last week's post, I will continue every Wednesday to invite you to send me your CV, résumé, or cover letter via email to [email protected]. I will choose one document each Wednesday to put up on the chopping block--that is, to review on this blog. I will remove identifying information, and will offer not only critiques, but also praise when warranted. Send me your document soon, and I will post the first I receive--with my comments--on this site.
