How much faith do you all put in the resumes of applicants? I've never had to consider resumes until I became AKM so for me this is new. It's very easy for people to tailor their resume towards the job they're applying for and I think I have an interview on Friday with someone who did just that.
The resume presents well but what bothers me is this... they they say they went to xyz school and studied under chef abc, then they go on to their experience and every job they have including their current one they are KM or some sort of managerial position at. To me the resume looks coached... I know the school that the dude went to and I know they offer resume support but I need to see some substance to their "run the kitchen to perfection" claims besides the write up.
I spoke to him on the phone when I set up his interview and to risk being judgemental.. he did not sound all that bright I must say. I had to tell him three times that no Sunday is not a good day to interview so can he please come in Friday instead? Already I am not feeling so good about this guy but that could have just been a miscommunication so I'm going to put on my big girl bloomers and deal with it as it comes.
How would you all have handled him?
