This week, Matt Amos, Chet Sears and Troy Trussell cover a recent bad experience Troy had with a home repair contractor. Why aren't they returning quotes? Why do they not care when they don't follow through? Troy needs some electrical work in his basement but is striking out at every turn. They start talking about recommendations and how honestly is the key to being a good contractor. The guys then turn to the job market and provide their Top3 resume "Don'ts". Matt closes the episode out with a good word out of Mark 7:25-30

Topics discussed:

1. What's On Your Mind: Troy has issues getting a contractor to follow up.
2. Top 3 Resume Don'ts: Don't skip the attention getter, Less is more, Don't forget spell check, Don't get too into the weeds to miss the big picture. Don't focus on titles focus on accomplishments, Don't embelish, Don't put hobbies and interests, Do put hobbies and interests, Don't have grammatical errors, Don't lie on your resume
3. A Good Word: The Doggone Truth: Mark 7:25-30
