Hi all. I recently got laid off after working for a great company for almost 5 years. I am in the process of updating my resume and since I feel totally out of the loop with the whole job-hunting thing, I need help. I worked for an online company in the health, diet and fitness industry. I was promoted several times throughout my 5 years at the company. I started out as the receptionist and worked my way up through 3 different positions within the company. So here's my resume...any help, feedback or criticism is much appreciated.Thanks!
