Resume Builder Update!

Our free resume builder helps job seekers quickly create a resume and submit it to multiple job sites at once. It’s great for people looking to create their first resume, but we have received a lot of feedback from users looking for an easier way to use our Resume Post service with their existing resume.

Frustrated job seekers: we hear you. Our stealthy resumes team recently unveiled a new feature that we think you’ll love – the ability to upload your existing resume in the following file formats: .pdf, .rtf, .html, .doc, and .txt.

After upload, you can still edit your resume using resume builder, making it simple to fix an out-of-date resume and jump start your job search!

The New Simply Fired

While we weren’t plotting any of our own chaos this April Fools Day, we’ve been hard at work creating a better outlet for your office pranks and shenanigans. Today, we’re announcing the re-launch of Simply Fired!

Based on user feedback, we have added some cool features, like the ability for users to vote on stories, making the cream rise to the top. We have also made it simple to you to upload pictures and images of your colleagues getting the boot-or of you giving the finger to the man. And we have added an RSS feed for new fired stories, moving with ease into the year 2007-only a bit behind schedule.

Since we can't seem to have re-launch without a contest, we present…The Prankies: The 2007 Office Prank Awards! Bring your best office pranks to us via videos, photos, or even stories. (Getting fired is optional!)

We have lined up some great celebrity judges and the prizes will be up to the usual Simply Fired standards-including a limited edition Simply Fired shirt that you can only get here.

Checkout the new Simply Fired site for hilarious stories and tips on how to further terrorize your company’s undeserving HR department.
