I'm going to meet a recruiter on monday. I'm very interested in working with him...

I don't even have a suit yet (it's been 7 years since i looked..and last time i wore my mom's.. i know, i know...).

Do i need a special bag for the resume? I have NOTHING.

А bag??? Папка есть? Желательно, не розовая с кошечками, а что-нибудь более нейтрально :) нескольк оэкземпляров резюме, пару листов чистой бумаги, ручка. Все, больше ничего не надо.

Если рекрутер работает не на конкретную компанию, а на самого себя, то костюм тоже не слишком обязателен, обычного business casual хватит.

Успехов!

I'd say don't worry about either the suit or the bag. Just nice slacks and a shirt, and a paper folder for the resumes. These days most resumes are exchanged in the electronic format anyway :).

And the recruiter is just as interested in working with you as you are with him, so no fretting :).

Btw, I was excited to hear your brother's news :)

[aska13]

I'm going to become an aunt right around that time, too :)

Thanks! i'm nervous.. i haven't spoken to anyone face to face about a new job since i got my current one... it's been more then 7 years...

Well, think about it. Recruiter gets a cut when you get employed, hence direct interest in you being employed, hence no potential harm for you from talking to him/her :) Want me to ask Misha for more IT recruiters' contact? He had one or two people before.

Oh that would be great! Thanks!
