CRITIQUE
    There is no doubt that Dominic is a top performer, but this functional-type résumé doesn’t help him. His accomplishments are not associated with the companies he has worked for. Although he has had excellent performance, it is too hard to tell in what context he performed. This is the major problem with all functional-type résumés. If the reader doesn’t know who Absolute or The Elements or Salesforce.com are, he or she won’t appreciate Dominic’s ability.
    Dominic rewrote the résumé to make sure the duties and accomplishments he listed were associated with the companiesthat he had worked for. Much, much better! However, he still did not identify what the companies do, so it was still not possible for any reader to realize how good he really is. Here is the second attempt.
