Resume Spamming Redux

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the can't-say-it-surprises-me dept.

wiredog writes "Remember this story about the guy who spammed his resume? Well, now the Washington Post is reporting that resume spamming is a trend. Enough of a trend to have generated a backlash!" Amusing fallout from an amusing story, and hopefully a lesson for others too.

    Very Shifmanesque, in my personal opinion.

  10. Resume? Resum�? R�sume? R�sum�? R�s�m�? by mindstrm · · Score: 1, Offtopic

    Just wondering about the technically proper grammar.
    As we don't use accents in English...

    Should an accent be used in Resume? If I remember my French classes... it's "Resumé" to indicate the sound of the last E.

    I mean, I could take it to be spanish.. in which case 2 accents would be, impossible.... as the accent only indicates the accented syllable.

    And where is the accent supposed to go, in french?
