Re: using a slogan on a resume
1. If it was truly an accurate summation of your goals and assets, then it wouldn't really be a slogan. It would be a summary statement. To me, the word "slogan" denotes a piece of propaganda that gets its effect from sounding clever and witty, as opposed to a straightforward statement of information. Perhaps we're arguing semantics here.Another leading question (sorry!):
Can't you be clever and witty at the same time that you give straightforward information?
That would be much harder than merely achieving one of these goals, but maybe the effort would be worthwhile.
