I would be very careful with Craigslist. People tend to post jobs listings for jobs they themselves are seeking in order to get resumes and/or see the competition.
I hear ya, or for straight scamming purposes .

Yep craigslist can be a legit trap for people to collect resumes and copy or even take your identity. It's best to email the
specific job with a letter of interest and see if they reply back. If they reply back with information about the company
then add resume and cover letter through the actual company website. I've pulled a legit job off craigslist but the
the specific company was in the job description

Is there a glitch or am I missing something?
lol ... The amount of stuff I have done and have experience, is extensive. I really don't know how to tailor the resume to cut the fat and leave the meat.Yall spending $700 for resume help? Where dey do dat at? Better off using a career center at a college and if you're not in school it shouldn't be hard for you to find someone to take it in for you. On top of that, I'm pretty sure you guys know somebody in the corporate world that could sit down with you and help you out a little and you'll get to learn at the same time.

I'm not confident in my writing abilities either for the type of jobs I'm seeking. Maybe I'm over looking things, but it's a route that I have contemplated.
For example sending 20 resumes and not getting a call back is not ideal for me.
I rather send a resume that is strong enough that I would at least get a job interview.
What sites yall guys using? Glassdoor, indeed, cb, usajobs, and monster? Is it something I'm missing?
Even with a 700$ resume you're going to go through that. The most qualified person in the world can apply to a job and get a rejection letter. That's just how it goes.lol ...

Ok I'll give it a shotGiven my industry (nonprofit/social venture sector) I usually go with idealist and honestly I've found most of my jobs since being in the city (NYC) thru the site.
Received an offer from a job a week ago. Took my drug test and consented to a background check. I am supposed to start Monday but haven't gotten a call or email about my first day or anything. Should I be worried? Tried calling and email today but no response (yet).
yeah but they told me they'd send me an email about my first day though. **** is stressful bThe offer letter confirms your starting day and that's the day they're expecting you. In my past experience, if you receive a call it's either about your drug screen and/or background check results. Otherwise, you should be good to go and congrats on the gig.Received an offer from a job a week ago. Took my drug test and consented to a background check.
