So we got a resume via e-mail today. That in and of itself is not unusual as it happens fairly regularly.
The guy wrote a cover letter to my boss where he says that "I worked with you before". So I tell my boss that he worked with this guy. Boss doesn't recall his name.
So I scour the resume (he had a 4 page resume, and lists the companies he's worked for while self employed, and the full time positions he's had).
I find our company, it says he worked for us from 10/98-10/99. I wasn't here then, but no one that was has any idea who he is. So we look into old records, and find him.
He worked here from 6/98-8/98. 1 week of June, all of July, and half of August. In fact he actually went on vacation during this month +.
But he has on his resume that he worked for us for a year, and the month he thinks he starts he had already moved on!?
Didn't he think about modifying that before sending it to us?
