ElliottMaker of Resume Notebook
For more than ten years, I’ve kept a record of my work and used it to tailor resumes when I apply for jobs.
Resume Notebook grew out of that system. I use it myself, and I’m making it available for others who want to keep their experience organized and put it to work.
