Was the 1st paragraph really necessary? I'm British, find your comments offensive, and could equally retort with similar stereotyped comments about the yanks but this isn't the place for it.

The only thing I'd say to you and others updating their resumes/CVs, is to "think like a recruiter". Until you reach the executive/very highly specialised areas, most ICT recruiters are British, have a couple of teeth missing, and sell counterfeit tickets to sporting games on the weekend. Some of them also sell fake Rolex watches and Louis Vitton handbags on cobblestone side street markets in the rain. They always wear trench coats and drink room temperature beer (ales, typically). They are terrible at cricket. Anyway, the way they "discover" you is by searching a database for keywords. Often they'll have a client requesting industry certifications by acronym - e.g. CCNP - so it's important that you include the acronym next to the full text of your certifications. Example: "Cisco Certified Network Professional (CCNP)" instead of just "Cisco Certified Network Professional". cheers, Dale _______________________________________________ For more information regarding industry leading CCIE Lab training, please visit www.ipexpert.com This e-mail has been sent from a PC belonging to LBM, registered office LBM House, Atlantic Street, Altrincham, Cheshire, WA14 5FY.
