In many ways, the difference between the two is like the difference between solicited and unsolicited proposals.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: The following are common rsum problems: (1) too long or wordy; (2) too short or sketchy; (3) difficult to read; (4) poorly written; (5) displaying weak understanding of the business world, a particular industry, or company; (6) poor-quality printing or cheap paper; (7) spelling and grammar errors; (8) boastful tone; and (9) gimmicky design.
An effective rsum has a clean, professional appearance that conveys your message clearly and persuasively. A rsum is a persuasive document, and by perfecting it, you greatly increase your chances of landing an interview.
