Googling for perl resumes

petdance on 2004-09-01T19:25:29

I'm still looking for candidates for my two jobs ( and ), and I've been googling for resumes. Turns out that I'm the #1 hit on "resume" and "perl", overtaking our own David Hand, as he's moved down to the #4 spot.


Irony

I find it pretty funny to see that you're ranked one better than the "SEO expert". :-)

Resume or résumé?

Interestingly enough the resuts are very different whether you use accented characters or not. Google seems not to do case folding.

Oddly enough I would guess that this favors people who use the easier-to-type resume instead of the more correct résumé, as chances are that the recruiter would not even know how to type the later.

Moving expenses?

I was just wondering...

Wow...

I had no idea, but... "searching for perl and resume" is not quite the same thing as "searching for resume and perl" :-)

And another wow...

I don't even show up... oh, that's right! It has "perl", but no "resume" nor "résumé" written on it :-) Gotta take care of that :-)
