I still think I've got something workable. It might not be, but I think I do. That's why I want to talk to people. I'm only thinking about 15 to 20 minutes of people's time, and I'll wind up with a much better plan as to what to do.
I will ask this, though: Can you send me any of that research you did? I've not found a lot of places to do what I'm talking about. I'd like to review some of the other resume sites that I've *not* found or heard about, and see if I'm wasting my time.
