During past couple of years many times I was asked by my colleagues in the HR department "Could you please shortlist these resumes for interviews?" answer was almost always yes. As a result I have gone through a large number of resumes to check whether if these people are suitable for an interview. While I'm scanning these resumes I found many reasons that I could reject these let alone the technical incompetencies of the candidates. Then suddenly one day I said to myself "why don't you write simple blog post about this?". So here I'm trying to put up a list of reasons that your resume might get rejected and how to minimize it. When you read this you will realize how trivial some mistakes are but they could surely cost your chance of landing your dream job. Typos in the resume Well I hate typos because it shows you how inconsiderate you are, keep in mind your resume is the first contact point with your potential employer so why don't
Among many other benefits of moving or building your web applications in cloud, for me I think the most important benefit we get is scalability. When it comes to web applications there are two approaches for scalability. Scale out - This means we increase the number of running instances of the application with a load balancer which distributes the requests among those instances Scale up - This means we increase the physical resources on a single application instance, for example we can increase the RAM of the hosted machine In reality preferred way of web application scalability should be to scale out. Because there are obvious hardware limitations in scale up approach. Bearing that in mind if we look at what Windows Azure provides out of the box, for a certain level it supports scale up approach and it has a great amount of support for scale out approach. Scaling your application out Windows Azure supports both automatic and manual scale out of the application.
