I agree; I have no trouble interpreting resumes, and I depend heavily on
a person's resume for getting to know the context and detail of their
experience, but it's usually _not enough info_ for me to make a truly
intelligent match. There seem to be many, many talented engineers with
resumes that don't give me the whole story (i.e., significant experience
left out, experience with specific software products not detailed, no
dates, no minimum hourly/salary requirements, no statement of
citizenship/green card/clearances, no geographic
preferences/requirements, no statement of companies I shouldn't
consider, no statement of availability, is permanent placement an
option?, etc.); my "skill inventory" covers all these points.

Another reason I use a skill inventory is because my clients almost
always require a minimum of (X) years of experience in several areas; my
inventory asks for these numbers, too. A resume rarely specifies how
long a person has had experience in a specific area; it can be
extrapolated from dates sometimes, but to ass-u-me this is
unprofessional, IMHO. I used to respond to each resume with a 20-40
minute phone interview, so that I could get all of the information that
resumes often don't have, that I really need. Using an inventory saves
both headhunter and applicant time, and increases my chances of getting
an interview with my client. It's true that length of experience is not
nearly as relevant as quality of experience, but tell that to my client.

For the record, I start out my inventory by inviting the applicant to
object to filling it out, in which case I use a phone interview to flesh
out what the resume doesn't say. And until I get the specifics, I do
interpret the resume as best I can and put it in the database; but most
resumes don't give me all of the info I prefer to have. A headhunter's
$.02.....

he plans to work for.  He is not dealing with a contract house.

P.S. Is this the difference between contracting and consulting?
     I thought the terms were interchangable.

Organization: George Mason University, Fairfax Va.

To make it easier for recruiters please put as much information
as possible in the header.  Often recruiters read this 
newsgroup only when they have a specific job opening.  This
usually means that there are over 500 posted resumes to be 
scanned.  It is a tedious process to read all these resumes 
in search of the right person/resume, and often (for me anyway) that 
person may get missed.  Doing this will result in a closer match, and
makes everybody's life easier.

So use the header portion to reveal as much info. as possible.
This includes geographical preferences (if any), degrees, 
experience, availability date, etc.
Good examples are:

>Recent MSCS with 2 yrs Exp seeks C/C++/Unix/GUI position in Silicon Valley

>PhD in ChE seeks R&D position in pesticides. Will relocate.

>BA in Bus. wants EL position in Finance/Banking/Insurance. NY area preferred.

>MBA (Dec 92) seeks Actuarial/Accounting position in Insurance. 15 yrs exp.

>Sr. PA (15 yrs exp) seeks mgmt position with a large computer firm in Chicago

Note: EL = Entry Level, ChE = Chemical engg., etc.

Also use the key words section to convey info. like coursework, background,
fields of interest, etc.

Compare this with the typical 

> Programmer/Analyst position wanted.
> Job wanted.

I think the point has been made.

Good luck on your job hunt.
