Need Advice on projects for resume

Post by cali_dotcom »

Hi' i'm a newbie PHP programmer looking to beef up my resume a little bit so i can land a job. i just completed a personal project, a job search website, with employers loggin, job search by keyword, jobsearch by category, a couple of polls and also an employers area where they could add, edit, delete and view their job postings. i was thinking of another project that is probably a little similar but different that i could do to beef up my resume. does anyone have any ideas? what else do you think i should get a hold of before looking for entry level jobs or jobs through talent agencies? any resources you recommend?
thx!

Know the answers to questions that will come up in an interview, especially if the people you are interviewing with know anything at all about programming, development, systems architecture, software architecture or PHP, MySQL and Apache in general.
