In “10 Ways Your Resume Irks Hiring Managers (http://jobs NULL.aol NULL.com/article/_a/10-ways-your-resume-irks-hiring-managers/20070809123709990001?ncid=AOLCOMMjobsDYNLsec0002),” Mary Lorenz provides us the timeless mistakes resume writers STILL make when penning the document that will help them get the job.
