What resume tips did you learn at the meeting?

I had to shorten my resume and add action/power words. It was 3 pages and to much info. I narrowed it down to 2 pages and gave it better wordage. I was also told to take off my address as it is not needed on a resume. I was told to just put the year I worked somewhere, not the actual months and years. I was told to use up as much white space as I could to get my resume down as much as possible.

Also, just a warning for anyone who has a resume out there. I got an email from a company in russia yesterday wanting to know if I was interested in being a finance manager and transferring funds using a US tax id for sales here in the country. It said they pay 3k to 5k a month for 3 hours of work a week. I did a google search on the company name and scam because it sounded to good to be true.

Turns out it is run by criminals in russia who took over a company website and they are involved in money laundering. I figured something was up. So I obviously said no and went in and took my address off of my resume. They found my resume on yahoo hot jobs. So just be aware of that if you have resumes out there. I was stunned.
