Job Interview Questions: Bringing your resume to a job interview?

hi, I know that there's a rule saying you should bring enough copies of your resume for each person interviewing you. My concern is that, it seems like such a waste of paper, I mean, for instance I would bring 3 resumes that are tailored for a specific position, and after the job interview is done, I'd have to throw them away because they wouldn't be tailored for any other positions I apply for in the future. Does anyone have any input? thanks so much

Special Job Interview Considerations

Recommended Answer:
you should bring enough copies for each person interviewing you. They want to be able to have something to look at on hand in order to reference your qualifications. They will most likely keep these after the interview not give them back to you to deal with.

It's just one of those things. Yes it is wasteful, but it shows that you are prepared and in the long run if you have to be a little wasteful in order to get a job it's what you have to do.
