Anybody else had this resume experience??

Original post by Sunny

Please tell me I am not the only one who paid all this money for pretty resume paper that 'stands out', and has a pile of it sitting on the floor because the ink ran, I got the address wrong, etc..
Why is each resume taking me 20 minutes, 8 sheets of paper, and 6 envelopes?

Sunny, are you just having problem printing a stack of resumes? and you're printing the envelope addresses?

This might not be a good long term solution, but a decent short one. If you provide your own nice paper, I think kinko's and other copy places will print on your paper for like 10 cents per copy. I know, not cheap, but decent and no more running ink.

I wouldn't address the envelopes via printer, I would just address them by hand. I don't think it matters as much but perhaps some people may disagree.

you could also use labels for the envelopes. What kind of paper are you using, or what kind of printer that the ink is running?

I have an epson inkjet printer, and I am using paper that says 'resume paper' on the box. I also have matching envelopes. I am printing on the envelopes. I was told that that looks better, too. I am going crazy!!!
