Resumes are just to present a candidate, and they present the information in very different ways (functional, chronological, etc.), plus some people leave some info out (such as graduation date). So if an HR admin for example is going to put together profiles of people, applications would work well for Mohamedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00397206715607675175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10639763.post-1125045598196731062005-08-26T11:39:00.000+03:002005-08-26T11:39:00.000+03:00I hate these applications that you mentioned ya Ro...I hate these applications that you mentioned ya Roora.

But why is that, is it because the majority are those who do things wrong?! Or is it because deviating from right to wrong is easier than MoonLightShadowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11144006626684493791noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10639763.post-1124961817037715572005-08-25T12:23:00.000+03:002005-08-25T12:23:00.000+03:00Having things our way is important, but that's not...Having things our way is important, but that's not always feasible (that's life). There is a basic quality standard that each one should try to meet (over here they call it conscioussness, and over there they call it law and good management), and this is what I should expect from work done for me, and it should go both ways.Mohamedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00397206715607675175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10639763.post-1124956700203671182005-08-25T10:58:00.000+03:002005-08-25T10:58:00.000+03:00I think it is our basic right to have things our w...I think it is our basic right to have things our way. I see the consequences of always being forced to accept things that u dont like (sometimes in ur own personal entourage, house, ...) has an effect on personality and identity. You time after time will forget what u really want, and thus tend to say, 'give me whatever u have.

On the contrary, doing things 'right' will end up complicating your life and pushing you into problems.
