Saw a funny resume today! :D
I was reviewing resumes received for an open position at my employer today.
Got one from a guy with a lot of accounting and Quickbooks experience who was looking for work as a "part time Beekeeper". Yep - that's what it said under his objective. "I am looking for a position as a part time Beekeeper". I couldn't quit laughing. Then there was a lady who put as her objective: "I am looking for a position with unlimited income potential." Yeh, well, who isn't. Good luck with that. Don't people READ their resumes before they send them out? Crystal

I work for a major retailer as an Operations Manager. I was opening a brand new store in a brand new market. I had to hire about 110 people. I interviewed over 500 people.
The resumes I received were nothing compared to the written applications. One question on the application is have you ever been convicted of a crime? Well let me tell you, the reponses to this question are unbelievable. One guy says yes he was convicted. I asked if he wanted to elaborate (can't make them). He said, yeah, I was just released from prison a few months ago. But I was just the get away driver. I didn't beat the guy up and rob him. My buddies did that. Or how about the guy who says yeah I was convicted and just released from the joint. They put me away even though the gun was unloaded. BTW, I didn't hire these guys.

Not a resume story but an interesting "What was this guy thinking" story.
My daughter, as a director of HR for a large banking company, interviews a 30ish man for a manager trainee position. At the end of the interview she asks if he has any questions. He says that he has to admit to having had a difficult time concentrating, " because you have the nicest legs I have seen in a long time." Needless to say - he didn't get the job.

My favorite cover letter:
"I need a job. I can do anything. Please hire me." |
