Hard working and reliable U.S. Navy veteran seeking full time employment...

Once years ago I went to a print shop to get copies of my resume done, this was back before the Internet, when you had to submit a resume physically. Anyways, the print shop left a copy of my resume in the copy machine after my order was done. The owner of the shop came in about 30 minutes later and found my resume in it, and called me and offered me a delivery job there.

Layoff backup plan was in place until I was without a job longer than anticipated. Therefore I would NEVER buy a car or anything associated with any of their brands!

I use glassdoor, ziprecruiter, LinkedIn and other job sites. Many have company critique area's. Some you have to take with a grain of salt. If one or two critique's are negative, that is usually just a pissed former employee, but if all the critique's are negative, that is a red flag and you should run the other way. Also if you see the that repost the same jobs quite a bit, that is also a red flag. You have to ask yourself, " Why is there so much turnover of people in these positions??!! Lastly, if the ad or something in the ad sets off you spidey sense, then listen to your gut.

Good question. I'd pick something in your education or recent work history that stands out or looks unusual, such as switching from English Lit in college to Corporate Finance in Grad School. Then explain your thought process, such as "I wasn't planning on becoming an English Lit major but wanted to be able to explain financial analytical results in language that everybody could understand."
