Skills on the resume

It's so telling when someone lists on his resume "CGI/Perl" as a skill.

(For more on resume fun, see )


Well...

It could be telling that they see a lot of job postings desiring "Perl/CGI" skills.

HR doesn't help

If I put on my resume that I have over five years experience developing Mason applications...

I'd be looked over for not knowing Perl, or CGI.

Not even the people I program for know the difference... or similarities.

Life would be sooooo much better if you knew for sure the person reading the paper could actually understand what it says...

Similar hassles for mod_perl & Perl

I always put both down since I got bored of telling agents that one implied the other.
