I recently joined a new company and we need to hire a lot of people. About 800 resumes were stored on my laptop and I was going through them like a hot knife through butter.
Things slowed down just a little when I clicked on one applicant's attached resume because it was done in Microsoft Excel. LOL...that's different! It was attractive and the gridlines made a nice, virtual watermark. 
Anybody else seen anything like that? I had to chuckle. |

There was this person who had sent her resume in MS Paint format!!!
She said she just count paste her pic in Word (for some reason I fail to understand even after 17 months)... The resume was in a horrible mess. (ofcourse we din't hire her...) |

I applied for a plant manager position by only submitting an 9 X 11 booklet of a white paper that I did on international management for the SHRM. The first page had a summary of my background. I was one of two candidates out of 100 applicants selected for an interview. |
