My resume :p
I don't know if people ever post their resumes here, but I think I will. I'll remove contact information, numbers, and etc
This was a really basic resume someone gave me a long time ago, and I just add to it over time. I've mainly worked for myself, so I don't have a lot of experience working with a computer or out in the field, and I'm having a lot of trouble finding work...probably because of that. <_<; Should I include minor work I've done...for single individuals?
I'm trying to get my CCNA, but I've failed twice so far. I still put down that I was trying to get it, so that it doesn't look like I'm done studying. I also plan to go for MCP eventually. The certs are going to take awhile, so I'm going to try and find a job and get some experience while I study. I've been looking for work all year, with no luck. I also haven't had luck volunteering. I've gotten close on a lot of jobs, but they always find someone else at the last minute. ;_;
I've taken a networking program at an IT school, so I threw a lot of the stuff I learned on my resume. It doesn't help that I don't have any experience or certs to back up any of it.
If someone could make some suggestions regarding my resume, I would greatly appreciate it. I'm really desparate right now...with my family selling our house to retire and I'll be stuck moving away somewhere to find work.
