Free Resumes

A sign of the times.  She stood outside of the PATH train station calling out "Free Resumes, Free Resumes...".   She held a large sign that said something about resumes.  People walked past paying little or no attention.  I wasn't sure if she was hawking a resume writing service.  I walked past also.  Then, I heard, "I need a job!"   Ah, she's job hunting.  This connected with me and my own job seeking past.  I circled back with my camera. 

She gave me her resume which had an email address, but not her name or phone. I asked what she did.  She gave me about eight different professions.  She had previously focused on a few of them but that didn't get her work.  She thought it was important now to make it clear that she can do a lot of things. 

She said since the economic downturn she had problems finding work, and felt that it was time to change tactics.  And, so she was hoping to connect with people who were passing.  An example of how the economy can impact someone's life situation regardless of their personal work history. 

I took her picture somehow thinking it might help her get a job.  So, here it is.  Look at her information (click the picture to read it closer).  Maybe you can help.  And good luck to her, known only as Stephanie, SFHIREME@YAHOO.COM.
