The Death of a Resume

You will not find a single individual who will tell that you your resume is great and that you should leave it exactly as it is.  People like to be asked their opinion and simply collecting subjective opinions will not serve your career objectives.

A better exercise might be to nicely ask to see the resume of a respected colleague or peruse as many samples as you can find.  This way, you can draw from the elements that appeal to you, and that seem to have the greatest impact and then apply those same techniques to your own resume. 

If you do a little research on your own and you identify a style and format that suits your requirements in terms of layout and structure—stick with it. You can craft and customize your resume from that point by following a general layout that suits your particular style. If you are struggling with articulation or how best to structure a sentence, you can certainly ask for help.

At the end of the day, you have to be comfortable with how your resume represents you.
More importantly, you have to be able to live up to what your resume conveys.  If your resume is overly influenced by someone else, the employer may pick up on discrepancies during an interview.  You will also have difficulty supporting statements which you did not generate in the first place.

Getting feedback about your resume can be helpful indeed, especially if it comes from an expert in your target field of work. A networking contact may have a point to make about your resume that is pertinent to him as an employer who is considering you for a role. Just be sure you can distinguish between constructive feedback, and personal preferences.
