My current employers dont even know I play chess! When I tell them I'll get a raise I bet :D
Chess on my Resume

I'm also considering whther to put "Organizer of Chess.com Troll of the Month contests" on my resume.

But to organize Troll of the Month contest you'll need a lot more than that. First and foremost you need to be a good troll yourself - you don't need to be the best in the world, but you need to be pretty darn good for you contest to have any credibility. On top of that, you need to have good organizational skills, since you are, after all, organizing a major event, and you need to be able to handle criticism, since trolls are have to endure frequent verbal abuse from people who hate them.

Only computers engines like Windows 3.0 Chess Titans can Get THAT high. Youre not a teen, Teens dont play chess. How much time can teens spend on chess? they're more conserned with getting their learner's permit and watching twilight saga.

Definitely. During most garden variety onsite interviews, they'll typically hammer you with a few Lucena/Philidor positions and ask you to win a blindfold blitz against a (garden variety) hamster.

Having a 1600+ Rating on Chess.com would look GREAT on my resume while looking for new job! WHO COULD COMPETE!?
(Unless they play too)
That would go under hobbies. It would look stupid if you mentioned chess.com on your resume.

totally, I usually attach a few print-outs of my better games with notation. By using comments in the notation I feel give's me a real chance to connect with the interviewer.
