Resume Tips for TEMPS

An article in The Dallas Morning News in its April 24, 2011, issue, “Resume Tips for TEMPS” by Cliff Garinn on page 1J suggests that you should avoid indicating on your resume that you are an employee of the company using the temporary agency rather than the temp agency. The potential employer will quickly determine that you were not an employee of the referenced company.

Garinn suggests that you group similar experiences under one heading even if these experiences have been with several organizations. You need to emphasized your performances rather than listing job skills.

Please share your experience in developing your job resumes.

Thanks! Glyn
