Jobicilious: Resume Makeover (Since It's a Recruiter's Job to Be Shallow)

You know the whole fashion world. It’s full of dense people (or do you call people who judge solely on boobs and size 0s shallow? I never quite understood how the English language could permit two completely contrasting words of literal meaning mean the same things in context) but that attitude is not just prevalent there. That’s right, recruiters are just as a legitimate runway checker as Anne Wintour and if you don’t stand out like a Kate Moss or Tyra Banks on the endless trail of CV showcases, you won’t be able to cross over to the world of $$$ (if you take those signs as a symbol of bliss, that’s your call. Open to interpretation). 

I have read over 30 books (obsessive much?) of resume designing books, including the infamous Resume for Dummies. In the end, I came up with this template that could/could not work for you. I am not sure if I will be reusing it next year, but it did manage to secure me a job this summer and next fall as well as a volunteering job at a film festival. 

Want an exciting life? Try it. :)

Meanwhile, I will be going downtown to volunteer for kayaking. See ya.
