Jack Vinson directed me to this site, which included instructions on how to write a resume your recruiter will hate. (Have you seen this before?)
Leave all contact information off your resume. We love a mystery! It is so convenient having to wait until we get a reply to an email to find out your phone number and location.
Make sure you have an objective listed that has nothing to do with your experience or the job you have applied for.

Well, I don’t know…I think resumes like this would make a recruiter’s job a LOT easier – maybe not the hiring part, but the wading-through-applicants part. And you KNOW this has to be based on real-life examples.
Sheesh. I loved it, though, and I’ll probably pass it along. Thanks for the laugh!
Thanks, Florinda. I agree.
I love the “wouldn’t hire this chump in a heartbeat” pile of resumes that used to accumulate on my desk. It’s a fun pile to read and use as a napkin.
I was looking for helpful tips for writing resumes and I stumbled upon this blog. Good read and I now know exactly of what not to do. Thanks
