Quirky Resume

Post by Anonymous User » Tue Jul 07, 2015 5:33 am

An upperclassman told me to put "talk to me about" as a resume heading instead on "interests and background".

I asked some hiring/interviewing professionals in non-law fields about it too and none of them said it would come across as "too casual" but I don't know I'm worried my interviewers are going to be crotchety.

That's dumb. There's no way it could help you, so why would you even do it
