Our last project didn't get posted because it dealt with reviewing resumes. Mainly resumes that were so bad they could not possibly get an interview anywhere because of them. The highest number of mistakes, poor choices, bad design, etc. totaled over 30.
The biggest question is why do so many Graphic Design candidates create their resume in Microsoft Word with Times New Roman. If you cannot design and brand for yourself for something as important as getting a job, how can you design effectively for someone else?
Two recent posts by Seth Godin talk about interviews "the end of interviews" and "the juggler". With two open positions I have been conducting many lately interviews lately and I found these posts very enlightening.
