Re: Thank you!

This way be the sweetest bug report I've recently crafted. The form I filled out is here.
Mr [Last],

Good afternoon. I don't recall requesting information about mail filtering services, but thank you none the less.
I was actually inquiring about career opportunities with your firm. Perhaps I filled out the wrong form?

Sorry to trouble you, then. Please let me know if you have any openings for Linux administrators or security
analysts.

Thank you,
[adric]

Resume/CV query

I recently completed a fairly prestigious online course, the first seminar in a series of professional education classes for a speciality field. Overlooking my need to write a new resume/CV from scratch to replace the legacy system, what are your thoughts about how to include this class? I'm particularly interested as to the weight I should give it with respect to recent employment, recent work, past education, trade skills, certifications, and volunteer work. (Those being the areas I've thought to cover in a new resume/CV). My first guess is to put it at the top of the legacy document when I make a couple other changes.

The volunteer work (and open source project) begs a whole set of questions on it's own... we'll return to those later.
