Well now take a good look at how to build the heading, job objectives, summary of qualifications, and work history sections of a rsum.

It really goes without saying that its vital to build a rsum heading that gives all the necessary contact information:

Legal name
Address
Including Street number and name
Apartment designation, if thats appropriate
City, state and zip code include zip + 4 if you are able, as it facilitates faster mail delivery, and also indicates to your reader that you are thorough and detail oriented
Home phone
Cell phone, if applicable
Fax number, if you have one
Office number, if you can reasonably expect a certain degree of privacy
Email address

Avoid personal email addresses that carry inside jokes or strange and unusual nicknames. Its easy to understand that someone would hesitate to email you about a substantial management position if your email address contains nicknames like daddys little girl or Alabama horny toad at domination lounge dot com. Take advantage of any of the many sources of free email addresses and establish one email account that you use for personal business communications. Keep the address simple, as in jsmith at geo dot com.

On the subject of a Job Objectives section under the heading at the top of the rsum, the experts we polled were mixed in their reactions. Half the experts, lead by Peter Newfield at Career Rsums dot Com, advocated that, unless you are completely changing industries, or you have graduated from a degree program within the last couple of years, an Objective statement is inappropriate, and a waste of the readers time. The other half of the experts, lead by Susan Ireland of Susan Ireland dot com, firmly maintain that the Objective statement is in fact helpful to the reader, as it immediately informs several of a prospective employers expectations:

What position you are looking for
To whom this document should be directed, in the event it will be read first by a gatekeeper
What level of responsibility you are seeking
The perspective from which to interpret all the information on the resume
What we believe is most effective is a virtual compromise between the two opinions: including a descriptive job title underneath your name in the heading, which will convey the same information

In order to inspire the interest necessary to generate an invitation for a job interview, all the experts urged jobseekers to create a summary of qualifications that makes the rsum stand out from the crowd. The Summary of Qualifications lists, Internet Keyword style, the features (such as skillsets, experience, outstanding achievements) you most want the hiring authority to see immediately. The Summary of Qualifications goes immediately below the heading of the rsum, or just following the statement of your objective, should you decide to include one.

As to the Professional Experience section of the rsum, design a work history listing that shows off your experience:

List the company name and location (city, state)
List the dates of your employment, including month and year
Prominently display your job title

Instead of a description of your job duties, or at least in addition to them, include key accomplishments you achieved in that position The accomplishments you include need to be quantifiable and verifiable Include any relevant awards received while in the position in question Finish out your reverse chronology with and Education and Training section. When referencing your college and university studies, list the name of the school, city and state, the degree, and the field of study in which it was earned. Unless youve earned your degree recently, say in the last three years, it is considered superfluous to include your graduation date. Also list any certifications, specialized training, technical or industry training that youve completed in this section as well.

Finally, in this digital age, most experts recommend a section entitled Computer Skills. Be sure to list the standard suites of office software with which you are proficient, such as Microsoft Word, Excel, Power Point, Outlook, Netscape, etc. Also include any specialized software packages with which you are familiar, as they may well be in demand from industry to industry:

Macromedia Dream Weaver
Adobe Photoshop
Quark Express
Auto CAD

That about does it for the necessary content on your rsum. According to the experts, do not list your references, do not include personal information (such as your social security number or marital status), dont even put a picture of yourself. Keep it short, sweet, and to the point.

It is now 2006 and for men's hairstyle trends, the New Year starts off with the first celebrity award show, The Golden Globes. All the male celebrities either set new hairstyle trends or hairstyle do nots for all the guys out there. Let's get started with some of the best looks.

Johnny Depp's hairstyle may not be the best for an award show or other gala, but the bed head style is great for days of hanging around or the club scene.

Joaquin Phoenix, on the other hand sported an old hairstyle that just did give an award winning appearance much like Evan Marriot, of Average Joe 15 minute fame.

Hot young actor Adrien Brody offers a smoldering look with a fine, long hairstyle. This will definitely be a hot, men's hairstyle. As for off the radar, former hot actor Ryan Philippe just does not fit the mold with the brown hair and short hairstyle. Reese is still a blonde and so should he.

For guys looking for that buzz trend, Matthew Fox, of the very popular series Lost, shows how its done from back to front and especially the side burns.

Hugh Laurie of, House Call, just is definitely an out of place doctor with his fuzzy hair that seems to be sticking out everywhere even with his Golden Globe.

Matt Dillon's new look came a little short just like his Golden Globe and will not be starting any trends with this hairstyle.

Well that is the quick view of some of the hot and not so hot men's hairstyles from the Golden Globe Awards 2006. If you would like some more hairstyle ideas please visit our men's hairstyle guide. Next up, the Oscars.

Google Inc. has launched a new software package that allows you to see satellite images on your desktop.

Google Earth lets you search for locations anywhere on earth and display 3D aerial images of major cities and tourist attractions. Google Earth is in development, but a free beta version is available for home users. Locations can be searched by address, intersections, cities, zip codes or countries and the images can be zoomed in close enough to see streets and buildings.

The images generated are 3D you can rotate the view to see different sides of an object. You can navigate using a mouse or the keyboard, and view selectable layers to display information about local features such as roads, terrain, schools or golf courses.

Images of 38 US cities can be viewed from the ground up allowing you to see 3D representations of buildings and terrain. Measurement functions include distances between two locations, perimeters, radius and area.

Search results can be saved, printed and emailed. Driving directions can be automatically generated and you can trace the route using the Play button located underneath the directions tab.

Google Earth is based on technology from Keyhole Corp., a digital mapping company acquired by Google in 2004. The database that drives Google Earth is based on images from satellite and airplane photographs. The database is said to be multi-terabytes in size.

Google Earth is available in several versions. The free version is for personal use. Google Earth Plus costs $20 and integrates data from your GPS device. Google Earth Pro costs $400 and is designed for businesses who need a research and collaboration tool. Finally, there is Google Earth Enterprise Solutions for on-site deployment of Google Earth.

The technology behind Google Earth is not new, and smaller companies such as GlobeXplorer LLC have been offering 3D aerial views for several years. Google has the marketing clout, however, to bring the technology to the consumer level and integrate it into its advertising programs.

Users can search for local businesses and receive a viewpoint of 10 search results within a specified area. Clicking on a business listing brings up its address, phone number and driving directions.
