the most creative resumes you’ll ever see at resumeshoppe
TRANSCRIPT
The resume ideas on this list are some of the most creative around. I mean, these are the resumes which are going to get
noticed.
Obviously you should not be stealing any of these
ideas, but hopefully looking at a few of the pictures will give you
some ideas of your own.
Hershey’s Bar
This is one of my favorite ideas on this list. The guy behind
this bar, one Matthew Hirsch, designed the packaging to
include his qualifications and the like (the bar was renamed Hirschys for obvious reasons).
Charlotte Allen
The next resume up on our list comes from Charlotte Allen. This
girl created a portfolio that looked exactly like a newspaper.
It worked incredibly well for showing off her design skills.
It also stood head and shoulders above everything else in that pile.
Facebook Page Resume
Everybody seems to be on social media nowadays, so why not
leverage that with a top Facebook resume?
You may even get discovered by people who you didn’t even apply
for positions with!
Video CV
Graeme Anthony decided to ditch the idea of a printed resume. He went for the
video option instead.
It was slightly different to other video resumes though.
You see; this video was fully interactive. It really
helped him to get noticed.
The Server Resume
Thought that being a food server was an easy job to
get?
Nope! There is a lot of competition out there and
thus you need to do everything possible to stand
out.
This nifty little food server resume is
designed to look like a notepad, and it is certain
to get noticed in that pile.
Curriculum Vitae
This design comes from Anton Yermolov. As you can see from the picture, it is just a single sheet of
paper, but it has been laid out incredibly well, and anybody who
feasts their eyes upon this colourful marvel will be sure to
remember it.
Curriculo Criativo
This Curriculum was put together by Samuel Profeta. It is on a juice
box. Probably not the easiest resume in the world to deliver,
but it is guaranteed to get noticed.
Top Secret ‘Report’
I love this resume package simply for the fact that it looks like a spy’s dossier.
Who wouldn’t love to have this beautiful attempt land
on their desk?
Brennan Gleason
I am unsure as to whether there is actually alcohol in those bottles. If
there is, it is an even better design!
Each bottle has a label with a different section of Brennan’s
resume on it.
Hand Drawn Illustration by Rovoz Zhong
Simple design, and yet the hand-drawn illustrations
really help to make it stand out. This is the style
of resume I like.
It is going to be pleasing on the eye after you have to go through countless
pages of poorly formatted job applications.
Marketing Flow Chart
Marketers love flow charts, so when Craig
Baute was searching for a marketing job, he opted to
make his resume a flow chart.
I followed this resume through, every single option leads to hiring
the guy.
What more could a recruiter want?
Robby Leonardi
If you are applying for a job as a video game designer, you need
examples in your portfolio.
So why not create a resume video game?
People have fun, and get to
discover a little bit more about you at the same time!
Brian Moose
Brian applied to a film company, Pixar no less, a company which thrives on creativity, with his resume inside a film can. How
could he possibly not be noticed?
Jordon McDonnell
This resume was a slide show, may seem a bit bland to you, but trust
me, it hooks you from beginning to end.
Fabric Resume
Melissa Washin showed off her sewing skills with this resume,
printed straight onto fabric.
Katie Pearson
This is not just a resume, but a whole brand
identity package. Notice how the resume, business card, and mailer, all share
similar design aspects.
That is exactly what you want when you are
applying for a job. You want to create a brand for
yourself.
S.W.
I am not sure where to begin with this resume, it is
certainly extravagant. It has obviously been designed with a military theme in
mind, and it looks brilliant as a result.
If this guy was applying for a job, perhaps at a PR firm, then he has pretty
much aced the interview.
Keiquan Blackmon
This resume is the perfect example of how you can
make a resume look brilliant and yet still have
it be easily readable.
Everything is neatly laid out, and all of the right information is included, and yet it is going to get
noticed.
Also demonstrates that the person who sent in the resume has decent
design skills.
The Resume 2013
This resume, put together by Riccardo Sabatini, is a creative folded booklet
design. It looks very much like a menu that you would pick up from a restaurant.
It is brightly colored, and it is sure to get noticed as
a result. Fantastic!
Nicholas Chocolate Bar
Another chocolate bar resume here, not as creative as the first one on the list, but it is still a good way to get noticed.
Google Maps Resume
This resume, from a copywriter, showed on a map exactly where
he obtained his experience. Simple, and yet highly effective.
