Lurk6r Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 Okay long story short.Went to awards night.The dj was actually the sound guy WHO DOESNT KNOW HOW TO USE VDJ.I said I can do a better job.Tommorow my studios owner has a meeting with the franchise owner and try to get me to do it.Now, i need a mix with current popular dancy songs but the owner is in his 50's. I can sorta do that. Advice still welcome tough...What I'm a bit stumped with is they said i needed a resume as well. WTF do i put in that?!?!?!?! Quote
chrismak Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 Sounds like the resume is just a formality. It would be worth describing previous experiences that highlight qualities and technical skills that are relevant to what you are doing.Example generic qualities: professionalism, take great pride in what you do, clearly understanding requirements & delivering solutions, dealing with unexpected issues.

Jaz Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 I say record a mix, burn it to a CD, put in your car, park outside his house, stereo full blast...so he gets the messagenah but seriously if the sound guy cant even mix then just show the owner/manger guy that you can and it should be fineas for the resume dude, i think the main reason would be so he can see you have had a steady job and will turn up on time n shit...i meen if you worked at KFC or an accountant or some shit its not going to really matter as previous experience for DJing or anything...

imadje Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 pretty much what jaz said.resume is to show that you have history of being employed or educated throughout your life without any wierd gaps where you were just wasting away. This prooves you are a worker not a shirker.Travelling, running your own business (even if it failed) or volunteering count as reasonable activiities on a resume... getting welfare benefits and being maggot for a year does not.Resume should also show your qualifaication and expereicne relevant to the job. and include references (with contact details) which are people who he can call up who will say "oh yeah, I know vl-urker, he's reliable, polite, adaptable, works well under pressure etc etc" The more serious a position they hold the more their comments will mean. I have a doctor friend whose children I keep in the basement, he gives me good references Quote
andyman Posted November 23, 2011 Posted November 23, 2011 Do heaps of coke and rock up with your record bag, push a table over as you walk in and say "now let's talk bidness"... Quote
