What can be done if your resume is in the toilet?



I'm thinking of going back to work after a tree year hiatus, it's just not possible to return to my field (Medical Lab Tech) after this long. What can I do to rebuild my resume? I have no work references as I have not kept in touch with any of my former coworkers and my previous lab manager has left town. What do I do? (I'm thinking of putting in for a pharmacy tech position that is available in my area)

Go for it, resumes are spin and nobody believes them anyway. Who is going to submit a crrap resume??

Put it in as honestly as you can, you must have some letters etc that prove your credentials so go for it.

No-one gives rotten references and most bosses dont check unless you come across as dogdy.

Man walk the walk and talk the talk, thats what gets you the job.

Best of luck
LOL! I'm glad you clarified "tree year hiatus"; I was wondering if you spend a year in a tree!

Is the company you used to work for still in business? If so, contact their personnel department and explain the situation and get the name of someone who would be the contact. They can at least verify your previous employment.

You still have skills, even if you took time off. Just be honest in applying for a new position and explain that you took the time off for whatever reason. Good luck in the job hunt!
