You need to check your grammar, spelling and punctuation.
If, I was a prospective employer, you wouldn't make the first round with that resume.

I'm not trying to be a dick either   I tell it like it is, so don't take this the wrong way and get all butt hurt. You need a lot of help. It's pretty terrible. Someone looking to hire you, isn't interested in your road testing capability. They want to see your skill information and schooling info too. Don't make it long and drawn out with frivolous information, like coordinating RO's ETC.

If, I get some time this week, I'll be glad to work on it to try and help you  

I can tell you up front. You need to add the reference information. This is key to making a good impression.
Without it, and having upon request, it makes you look lazy

LOL!  i did that too  .  for the most part no one knew what it was, but it sure was a good conversation starter  .

Here's a quick edit.  Don't substitute and, for & in a resume   Substitutions make you look lazy.

Try to remember, it's in the details. Glaring omission of details will kill you.  The word, Driveability is not hyphenated    

I'm not claiming to be MR RESUME, but I know people that hire and we always talk about the details missed. Just like the job.

Thanks.

How detailed were you with employment history?

Is this better?


Tom pointed out a grammar error as well.

Resume with employment history. I left out personal refs, being that this is a public forum.
