		< >  Killer Resume Excerpts These are taken from real resumes and cover letters and were printed in the July 21,1997 issue of Fortune Magazine. I demand a salary commiserate with my extensive experience. I have lurnt Word Perfect 6.0 computor and spreasheet progroms. Received a plague for Salesperson of the Year. Wholly responsible for two (2) failed financial institutions. Reason for leaving last job: maturity leave. Failed bar exam with relatively high grades. It's best for employers that I not work with people. Let's meet, so you can 'ooh' and 'aah' over my experience. You will want me to be Head Honcho in no time. Am a perfectionist and rarely if if ever forget details. I was working for my mom until she decided to move. Marital status: single. Unmarried. Unengaged. Uninvolved. No commitments. I have an excellent track record, although I am not a horse. I am loyal to my employer at all costs....Please feel free to respond to my resume on my office voice mail. I have become completely paranoid, trusting completely no one and absolutely nothing. My goal is to be a meterologist. But since I possess no training in meteorology, I suppose I should try stock brokerage. I procrastinate, especially when the task is unpleasant. Personal interests: donating blood. Fourteen gallons so far. As indicted, I have over five years of analyzing investments. Instrumental in ruining entire operation for a Midwest chain store. Note: Please don't misconstrue my 14 jobs as 'job-hopping'. I have never quit a job. Marital status: often. Children: various. Reason for leaving last job: They insisted that all employees get to work by 8:45 am every morning. I couldn't work under those conditions. The company made me a scapegoat, just like my three previous employers. Finished eighth in my class of ten. References: none. I've left a path of destruction behind me.
