How are we doing??
I added several hyphens, corrected some spacing, changed a few words, made "product" plural, dropped workplace street names and phone numbers, capped and bolded the headings, and bolded and italicized the job titles.
Omit the greater than/less than signs, if you wish. I've used the plus sign instead on resumes, or in Word there are check marks.
I centered the top two categories so they stand out, and centered the last one so it balances at the bottom.

Should they not have the phone number of my previous employment so they can call them? And I'm doing it on publisher.. It's bolded and such on there but when I copy it it's not.

Anyone you want an interviewer to call should be on the page containing your references. That info should not appear on the resume itself.
You'll have to italicize and bold however Publisher does it.

I think it sounds VERY good now. Follow the format I posted most recently with the bolding and caps and italics and centering, and it will look very impressive! I'm not thrilled with the > and < thingies. Maybe use + at the beginning and + at the end of each line, or just leave the lines alone, with no symbols.
McDonald's is first because it is the current job. Everything goes newest to oldest on a resume.

I am owrking at McDonalds right now, and am planning on quitting when I get another job. Should I still put "present"? And If I get a call back should I tell them I can't start for 2 weeks?

Yes, put "present" -- never lie on a resume. And yes, most employers realize you have to give notice at your current worksite. Two weeks is the normal and responsible time for giving notice.

My husband is looking for good job can someone critique his resume?
[ 4 Answers ]
Attached is a my husband's resume in 2003-2007 Microsoft Word format.
Thank you so much for helping us out. He has never had to make a resume before, and I have always worked for my grandparents. I just took a class that had a section on resumes, but I am still too unsure of myself to rely on...
