If you have submitted a resume and are expecting someone to call you on the phone, make sure to have a professional sounding message on your answering machine. I just called a candidate that had Timon and Pumba from The Lion King singing as his message. I almost hung up and tossed his resume in the trash. He’ll have to go the extra mile to convince me to call him in for an interview now.

Doug,
Can I ask why you’re looking to move to the Raleigh, NC area from California?
I’m from the UK, I would have thought California would be the dream place to live.
