Resumes made with templates can be spotted a mile away and scream "I'm not creative and I'm pretty lazy". Just my experience.

There are only so many things you can do with a resume. I think it would be pretty hard to make a resume now and not have someone find a template that looks just like it or very close.

Yea screw it! Worst of all, I spent a ton of time making my last resume and all the cute little details don't even tranfer when I apply online. I'm sure it's a formatting problem on my end, but it still sucks! I don't do any hiring anymore but when I did, I sure didn't give a fuck about curly Qs and borders or whatever... are you fucking qualified or not?!?

Creativity is warranted in some jobs...but I think you're right...most HR peeps just want to know if you're a qualified individual.

I have heard of someone putting their resume on an old shoe. Wrote that shit right on the leather. Can't remember what the job was.

Thanks for the help. I put out two Resumes. One for a seasonal sales job at an electronics store which I received a job yesterday. And one to the Firefighters school. That one I'm still waiting on.
