      If you're looking for a job in the U.S. or in England (or any other English speaking country), you may want to have a friend do a bit of rewriting so that it's a bit more understandable. I'm sure that much of the original formatting was lost as well, though, so it's hard to tell what's bulleted and what isn't. With 8 years of experience, you may want to expand more on the things you've done, and eliminate personal information such as age, marital status, and hobbies. In any event, that's what I can think of off the top of my head. But look at the bright side: at least you're getting interviews. The tech bubble is well past popped, and it's a buyers market now. There are more programmers than jobs, and lots of companies are getting hundreds of resumes for a single position. Consider yourself lucky that you're at least getting in the door. Bob Ciora

          I think what Bob Ciora trying to say is the expected salary figure is the reason that drive the decision and might not be your resume or experience. Or suppose Russia has too many good programmers that drive the competition crazy? Sonork 100.41263:Anthony_Yio

            SALARY: AS I said: I much job offer skills for 80-100%, confirm it usually, for 80-100%, much salary offer for it precisely. get after interview words "we like you, wait days" and no responce - means reject. Up to now useful - to eliminate hobies. I can delete it easily. But many employers has such a line in resue form. Some products is big enough, thus creating one per year in average is not a good result ? I written many small utilities- must I include description of it - does not my esume will be too much, and technology repetitive ? But is it only disadvantages you found ? Other is perfect ? Big thanks for brainy help.
