In order to help those who are looking to get a job, I thought I might query those of you on list who hire a series of questions.  I will ask each in a separate note, and I will consolidate your responses and post them to the MuseJobs folks to help them out.  Here is the first question:

What is the first thing you want to see on a resume? (i.e., education, job history, summary, what they can bring to your organization, etc.)

Does the resume have to follow a standard, cookie-cutter format, or is there room for creativity in design so as to appeal to your eye?

What things don't you need to see? (i.e., hobbies and interests).

If you received the perfect resume, what would it look like?

What's more important to you, the candidate's education, or the candidate's work history?

Thank you to any who choose to respond.
