Comments on: The Most Creative Resume I’ve Seen In Years http://www.stevepratt.com/index.php/2008/12/21/the-most-creative-resume-ive-seen-in-years/ The future of media, music, and creativity Tue, 20 Jul 2010 21:16:26 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0 By: ashea http://www.stevepratt.com/index.php/2008/12/21/the-most-creative-resume-ive-seen-in-years/comment-page-1/#comment-366 ashea Tue, 20 Jul 2010 21:16:26 +0000 http://www.stevepratt.com/?p=200#comment-366 I get how the author was not only refreshed, but delighted by this resumé. It didn't appeal to me when I first saw it online a couple of weeks ago, but I did think that it would be perfect for a related position. However, after seeing the second page for the first time in this post and hearing how it does apply to the position and the way she tweaked everything to the reader, I think it's great!<br><br>Separately: I had to go back corporate from the real estate industry in 2007 and I DIDN'T take a huge risk, just used different fonts. I am artistic and technical, so very aware of spacing and readability (it wasn't just all over the place), however an insider told me that my resumé was extremely impressive, but to change the whole thing to Arial (font). LOL At first I thought my endeavor was unsuccessful, but after getting the job and after others gave me feedback, I realized that that boss simply liked things to be one way and one way only -- even if she thought what you did was cool or just as effective. Bleh. Just thought I'd share. I get how the author was not only refreshed, but delighted by this resumé.

I think the icing on the cake is that it's instantly familiar (for anyone who uses facebook that is) so employers dont have to figure out where everything is. it's very good.

Better safe than sorry and identify thief (or worse) is a real issue. Email address is all we need to know if we want to contact her for a job.
