Let me put this as delicately as I can. In the corporate world, one  
does not pay to submit a resume. One pays to list a job and get  
resumes. In the corporate world, a company charging for resume  
submission is not likely to be one worth paying money to.

Craigslist, Monster, Dice, they charge the employer, not the employee  
(who, since they are applying for a job, probably are hurting for money)

In the music world, the complete opposite: the musician is charged  
for the privilege of submitting a resume for a job.  I believe this  
heartless structure is completely based on a perception that  
musicians are easy to take advantage of.

Companies that use Musicians as labor for their products should pay  
just as much as companies that use accountants as labor for creating  
their products.
