I've interviewed a number of people in the last year, and I would say over 90% of them used word. You could tell because of the templete.

All the people that we hired was through a head hunter. One of them placed me in the position I'm in. They are a pain to deal with, and get with more than one, but they help.

Here are a couple of websites I found with some decent info:

I've gotten some pretty good comments on my resume. I could send you mine and you can use it as a template.

Account Resouce in Palatine
847-991-2800 my contact is Chris Magnuson (mostly accounting though)

Barrett Partners
312-443-8877 my contact is Jerry Denning (good guy)

Not sure where you live, so not sure how much help they are.

If you look on like monster.com, you will see a bunch of the same headhunters as the contact. Just call them.

Best thing is just to get your name out there. Let friends and family know.
