Logo on resume

Where would it be a good idea to use the MCSA logo, on the resume or cover letter or both. I was thinking that it would not look professional on the resume but the cover letter might be a good place. Has anyone used this with any success? Or should I just stay away from it?

    hmmm, well I think the resume is actually the better place to use it, but if you want to use it on the cover letter I would opt to put it below my signature.

    Perhaps someone else has put their logo on the resume.

    I have used logos on my resume (A+ and Microsoft logos) and I just put them right under my Certifications/Memberships heading and then listed the certs and memberships (hence the heading name icon_lol.gif ) right underneath them.

    They definitely grab someone's attention when they just glance at resume after resume...it's a nice eye-catcher and is almost instantly recognized.

    Good Luck! :D

    Just a slight critique on that resume. In the work experience section he lists his experiences in past tense, provided, monitored, preformed as if he left the experience there. I would write those sections in the present tense as if they are skills i possess

    in my opinion it has to be in past tense as your no longer with the company performing those tasks for them. if these are skills still used list them in the skills section of your resume
