I have no other means of printing my resume. My printer for some reason will not print. Should I call and ask her if I can reschedule? If so, what should I tell her? Thank you!!!

Do not reschedule unless you tell them you had an emergency because it will look very bad against you really, I am a HR Specialist and I would not like it if you did that. Just save it on a disk and run to Kinkos.

If you have a library card, you can go to your local library and print it there. That is what I did the other day. My computer didn't have the cord that connects to my wire so I put my resume onto my e-mail and when I got to the library I went online into my e-mail and print it and was on my way to the interview. Thank God, I had my resume with me because that was the first thing they asked me for. Now, I have a wonderful job with them. Thank you Lord!!! I do most of my printing now through the library and my first 10 copies are free each day. So basically you get benefits for going there. If you live in the Chicago area, those are the libraries that do that. Let me know how it went. Good luck on your interview!!!

You should have it saved. Just e-mail it to yourself and go to the library or Kinko's or something to print it. Maybe they'll even let you print it at the company. It's extremely unprofessional to show up without a resume, so do whatever you have to do to get one there. If you can't print it - go to the interview anyway. Just tell the truth - your printer jammed. It's not so unbelieveable that they wouldn't hire you.
Good luck!

What ever you do, don't call and cancel or reschedule. That will look bad on your part. Bring it on a disk or call and get their e-mail. let them know what's going on. I'm sure they've had a glitch or two with their equipment before too. If you have time go to kinkos or an office supply store and have it printed out, but bringing it on disk or e-mailing it should be just fine. Just let them know ahead of time.

Tell your interviewer the truth. Ask if it will be allright if you mail your interview as soon as you get it printed out.
You may be able to go to a place where they rent computers by the hour and print out your Resume. that would be the best solution, but do it now.

First thing: relax. If it is meant to be, the job will be yours. Second thing: save the file to a disc and take it with you to the interview. Third: Get ready and try to look nice. Fourth thing: Go to your interview and be punctual. Fifth thing: If they asked you for your resume, explain the problem you had and tell them that you have your resume with you and suggest to them if it would be possible for you to print it in their office. Sixth thing: If they are professionals, they should not mind doing that for you. If they get upset about it, forget about that place. It's worthless. Good luck!

E-mail it to them and let them print it. It tests a business for you to make sure that they have the level of committment to being up on technology enough to have an email address and computer system with printer. Otherwise, why work for them if they cant stay up on something so basic?

Put it on a disc and try to find a printer before your interview! Or simply explain to the interviewer that your printer would NOT work. She may find it funny! Everyone has computer problems!

Don't call & reschedule!!!
Just burn it onto a cd or disk quickly & if possible, make a label for it (print it if possible, otherwise very nicely handwrite it).
If you have extra time, throw it on disk & head to Kinkos. Normally they can pump it out in five minutes or less!!

Ask her if you can email her your resume and apologize for any inconvenience it may cause. DOn't say that your printer doesn't work, it may seem like you are a procrastinator. Let her know that your sister or someone, took your folder accidentally with your resumes since it was underneath a magazine. That may work
