| Mewmie | Posted – 10/17/2007 5:06:18 PM | show profile I have an interview this week with a major publishing house that I interviewed with over a year ago. Would they still have my employment application and resume from last year on file? Do they toss them after a set time? I would like to fill out new forms anyway since the old ones are kind of outdated. |
