Grace,
Great points! The resume template business seems to be booming in this recession and their main targets are Gen Y. Writing a strong resume is not about picking a statement from column A and another from Column B. It requires thought, introspection, and hard work. I always laugh when I receive a resume from a Gen Y candidate that is obviously a template. You would think that this group would be savvy enough on the computer to come up with an original design. Thanks for keeping students and recent grads informed.
