I am looking for a program to help organize and write a resume. I can find no such programs in the libraries, and wanted to ask if anyone knows of such a program, and where it can be obtained. Thank you, Chris Durkin

Just go to the library and get a book on resume writing. It will have plenty of templates. Use your DTP program to create it. Any Amiga word processor will also do a credible job on whatever style you choose. Do get guidance. Don't get cute just cuz you can. I got a mac produced cover letter the other day that had one bullet, an open square, followed by a listing of the job requirements. Then another bullet, a square with a check mark on it, listing his "matching" qualifications. Too cute. "Ding!" — Art

Chris, If you are using Workbench 1.3, `Mavis Beacon Teaches Typing' has a resume writer included with it (the typing program is top notch too!). But unfortunatley the program is broke under Workbench 2.04 and will not run. 🙁 …Steve ====>>> Motorola 68030 Inside <<<====

Chris, I don't know of any program to do the job and I see someone sent you to the library, a good idea (to a point). I personaly do resume(s) (or a CV – as us Brits call them). If you want I could send you an example of the ones we do and some additional info to impress. Charles * Thirsk – North Yorkshire – United Kingdom *

Ahh, a Thirsk person. We were there in '85 (no choice, my wife is an avid Herriot fan) couldn't stay long enough unfortunately. regards, Lu on AutoPilot downunder

Yes he (Herriot) does have a few (masses) of fans. Unfortunately being someone who knows him it doesn't seem to bother me. All the same it is nice to know MOST people will know where I'm at. 🙂 Charles * Thirsk – North Yorkshire – United Kingdom *

I guess a lot of people have taken the trouble to find out the real Thirsk. The locals seemed quite resigned. We were staying at a farmhouse a little South of there with people called Victor and Mary. Only a few days but we'd love to get back some time – so little time, so much to see. regards, Lu downunder on AutoPilot

The world does seem to become rather large when you consider what you want to see. 🙂 I don't know who you stayed with? A village name would help, but alas there are quite a few. Did you venture to the "White Horse", probably North East of your overnight farmhouse. You would probably see it as you arose the next morning. I do confess the locals do have a character all of their own, especailly if one ventures up into the real moors around here. The wit of the old hill farmers is as it is portrayed in Herriot's book, nothing changes up in whose moors. Charles * Thirsk – North Yorkshire – United Kingdom *
