Profiles Suck

.rant.ahead.

Profiles really suck.

They take too long to write and they're only as good as the résumé they're made from.

I did three of them today. At an average of 45 minutes per profile, that's over 2 hours of work for me. Booooo. Profiles suck.

And the worst thing is the editing. The experts are right: people don't know how to write proper résumés. People suck.

Due to people sucking at writing résumés I have to edit. A lot. What would normally be a 30 minute job creating a profile becomes a 45 minute writing and editing job.

Okay, that's about the end of my rant.

One bit of advice if you're looking for a job: Learn how to write a proper résumé. All the experience in the world ain't gonna help you out if you don't know how to communicate it properly on your CV.
