I was reviewing resumes on a job board and came across this GEM....this was a summary notes attached to a guys resume...no joke!

and no I did NOT call him for the job I was hiring for
Re: Resume FAIL....[*** MY RULES FOR CONTACT***]
OMG. I would want to call him just to see if he's as ridiculous as his resume "notes". Then I would ask if he wants to come in for an interview later that day.

No joke with that statement - wow. That's special.
And ask him how he's doing. While using your heaviest foreign accent.
Hmmm, maybe he's on unemployment and complying with the job application requirement, but doesn't really want a job, so he's sending out this letter.
This guy sounds like a real peach- I want to hire him right now, lol.
