LTE smartphones are becoming faster and cheaper High-end smartphones offer high-speed wireless connections—but few mobile operators have made the infrastructure investments required to keep up with them.

In fact, it was hiding his true value to potential employers.But what Thorburn-Gundlach did have going for him was an awareness that his resume was more of a hindrance than a help, and that it was badly out-of-date.Out-of-date and much too long "I had invested a lot of time and effort into crafting a resume -- 10 years ago! I knew my resume was entirely out of date, and that the focus of my career has since changed.
