HELP!!!! Please!!! Is my Resume the problem!!

[tlc2u]

hi to all,

i know i'm not the only one having trouble finding a job. i've been applying for 6 months now. yesterday a coworker offered to look over my resume. she said i should only tell a few duties of each job and leave the recruiter wanting to know more so they will call me for an interview.

now i'm thinking my resume needs help!!!

any advice would be greatly appreciated.
