I have sent you an email. -gaga(gaga); 2001-6-7 (#92858@0)
If I were Agent, I think you can do nothing.Maybe you just know the lanaguage name, you said I'm familiar it. More and more fake resume, less and less opportunity for newcomer, although they are expert. -guest:guest; 2001-6-7 (#93517@0)

so, I think you are so luck if you already got job. but how about when you turned down? I am afraid you would not say that. -guest:wager; 2001-6-7 (#93558@0)

I just look for the job which match me very much. I don't send 200 resume to let them be garbage. I can tell employer, I don't know that, even though I haven't job in past one year. -guest:guest; 2001-6-7 (#93595@0)

you are a honest guy, anyway, it is different packing yourself from faking. in such a worse market situation, a attractive resume should give you more changes. -guest:wager; 2001-6-7 (#93641@0)

exactly, an attractive CV is a must to get u an interview. once u get there, ur next big issue will be communication. -speed(如风); 2001-6-7 (#93069@0)

请问我这种资历，在现在可能找到工作吗？代理总是问"你来多久了"，对这种问题要怎么回答？ -im_stone(im_stone); 2001-6-7 (#93293@0)

I think u should be able to find a job. -speed(如风); 2001-6-7 {259} (#93304@0)
When the agent asks u 'how long have u been here?' just simply told them, 'It's been a while.' If they insists that u give them a number, ask them 'Is it really important?'. They asked this because they want to have a general feeling about ur English.

I think the rule of job hunting is on the hand of agent -guest:wager; 2001-6-7 {236} (#93546@0)
they asked this question because they wanted to know how long candian experience you had. how about he became impatient as I answered the question in your way? is there another answer. .. confident and humble. thank you for your comment

No, ur job hunting is not on the hand of agent! They live on u. Be confident. -speed(如风); 2001-6-7 {195} (#93632@0)
BTW, if they keep asking this kinda question, they are just being rude. Because when u told them 'been a while', also means u don't want to tell them the details. And this is a personal thing.

I wish I were confident as you are. hehe. btw, congratulation on your success hunting job. -guest:wager; 2001-6-7 (#93648@0)

You have to decide what kind of job you want. Don't apply for all the jobs. I think you are quite good at VB and so so for C++/java. So try to find a VB job first. -guest:; 2001-6-7 (#93672@0)
现在被lay-off的人很多，都在找工作，你比他们有多少优势？代理和公司更愿意要有加拿大经验的人，除非你会特殊技术无人能比。耐下心来慢慢找吧。 -guest:guest; 2001-6-9 (#95762@0)
Me too. I have been here over 2 months, but still no employer interview. Those agents, they also asked me how long have you been here. But I know, for those laid off, they will usually find a new job more easily -guest:porkermon; 2001-6-14 {178} (#101196@0)
. Once a time an agent ask me whether I was laid off just now. I can't say anything just that I have never been laid off, only I am a new immigrant, I need to find a job here.

参加了学习班，发了more than 200 resumes了吧，follow up总是告诉我"你等着".......... -im_stone(im_stone); 2001-6-7 (#93232@0)
剽窃。 -rollor(Rollor); 2001-6-7 (#93234@0)

Could you please recommend some good job search club or class? -yjz(yjz); 2001-6-7 (#93697@0)

可是连代理的电话也没有几个，有的话也只是问问你来多久了，要多少薪水...，第一次miss了一个电话急的想掐死自己，现在已经没有任何感觉了 -im_stone(im_stone); 2001-6-7 (#93661@0)

maybe it would be better as you focus your mind on narrow field,such as c/c++ under unix. there are less position on vb position. -guest:wager; 2001-6-7 (#93681@0)

sigh, but my C++ experience in unix is prety poor -im_stone(im_stone); 2001-6-8 (#95354@0)

hehe,I thought you must know what a computer programmer means, that means you had to learn more and more new skill . -guest:wager; 2001-6-9 (#95563@0)

我想大概面太杂了，数据库方面似乎薄弱一点，简历可能不明确，重点不突出。 -uid(miracle); 2001-6-8 {214} (#95372@0)
有证书很必要，但不充要， 5年工作经验中不知道跳槽多不多？尤其是最近一家公司是什么方向的很重要，如果最近一家的公司是通讯，则强调 Lotus notes 是不是就不太合适了？
个人认为，对小公司要强调web, 大公司要强调 pure
什么都会就是缺加拿大经验。 -guest:guest; 2001-6-9 (#95764@0)
