I thoroughly enjoyed reading your responses to the crazy things people actually did in their interviews. Since this is just too much fun, I found some unbelievable things that people have put on their resumes according to Resumania - a Robert Half monthly column. Rest assured, they didn't get the job!! I Hhpe this brings a smile to your Friday!! - "Referees available on request."
- "Proven ability to track down and correct erors."
- "Experienced in all faucets of accounting."
- "Worked party-time as an office assistant."
- "Work history: Left job because disciplinary actions were taken for showing up late."
- "An obsession for detail; I like to make sure I cross my i's and dot my t's."
- "Experience with LBM-compatible computers."
- "I am a rabid typist."
- "I am loyal to my employer at all costs. Please feel free to respond to my resume on my office voice mail."
- Cover letter: "I've updated my resume so it's more appalling to employers."
- "My compensation should be at least equal to my age."
