That is a good thing.

header on the resume, should it be all text, or include a simple, small picture?

My preference is use space for meaningful info about you in a presentable format. Its a resume not a powerpoint presentation, so no need for pics //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

You're real good at saying "no" and agreeing later. You must be an executive. lawl

Better than sales who always say yes to get a fat commission check, and then leave delivery to say "not possible" to a proposed solution to a customer //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

Somehow we always find some over-cost way of delivering it though. I love sales!

yes, but my belief is the header should include personal information, and it be centered. So there is wasted space on each side. In my Intro to business course I used a small picture and recieved a good response. maybe i should screen shot it

Maybe so man. In all the resume's I've gotten from people one with a picture doesn't stand out in my mind. Maybe I've never gotten one with a pic, or maybe it didn't stand out, can't be sure.

B&W ftw

Exactly. Ask yourself, who's making the bank role? At all times.

I've always thought commisions should be based on the initial sales contract, but a percentage of that is held in waiting for a few years into a contract to make sure customer sat is good, and the solution sold is netting what was scheduled for profits.

I guess that goes against the sell, sell, sell mentality pushed in sales though.

/my work rant - sorry for the tangent

Personally it looks like a cute letter head I'd expect to see on a small time business letter.

Sorry if thats harsh, just bein honest here. I just don't see it as professional. I like to see things clean and basic. Make your most important info stand out and get attention, a pic draws away from that.
