I mean, the whole concept of the shoe is dumb to begin with, but I am particularly struck by the odd decision to have the top part be brown and sequiny with a tie and tassel like you might see on an ostentatious set of curtains. What about that is reminiscent of Star Wars?
There's a USB charging port in the heel. I think the light saber heels light up and make vzzzzzew, vzzzzew sounds.
Vader shoes stepping on Han Solo's face. My Empire Strikes Back PTSD is kicking in again *breathes into paper bag*
Sort of serious question here. I just got an email from a recruiter that included the following. This guy is an idiot, right? Two of the sample resumes he sent me were 7 pages long without even including references. Did the world suddenly change in that everything I was ever told about resumes is now wrong? These documents were listing every project they ever worked on and had so many software package names listed that it reminded me of the early days of the internet when every website had a jumble of search terms piled together at the bottom.
I've been told the opposite: try to fit your resume on one page. People won't read anything past the second page. I don't know if that's true, but that's what I've kept in mind. Two pages minimum sounds a little silly. Seven is just absurd.
I replied saying that I was no longer interested in the job he was hawking and got the following response around 8PM. Bear in mind that he cold called me. I'm willing to bet he's the kind of guy who cat-calls a girl then calls her a bitch when she ignores him.
That total uppity unlikeable fuck everyone hates. This was the kid who raised his hand five minutes before 3pm to remind the teacher she didn't assign any homework for the holidays. Jesus Christ. I want to kick that guy in the balls. Are you serious that this shit is real? What a crybaby. I've always kept resumes short and to the point. I think mine's barely over a page long. I thought that was the ettiquette: don't bore or brag.
Ive heard that one page rule is basically useless now that everyone uses a computer and as long as it's not too long two pages is fine. I use LinkedIn a lot at my job, while dicking around Ive seen some insane list of jobs/skills. One "freelance" movie producer I came across had every job he's taken listed, every script he worked on that was never picked up detailed, complete with concept art and all. My finger almost cramped from hitting the mouse scroller. Saw a similar one for a girl that worked as a key grip and in set production. Maybe it's just the industry. They could have easily been ten pages printed out.
I have a one-page simple cover and a 12 page point form resume, but mainly because of the short-term, hired gun type consulting I've done. I basically use the resume as a quick smell test. Are they using lots of big words to try and impress me, or is there actually interesting content and experience? If the latter, I'll get my HR person to do a quick call to do his bullshit detection. If it passeshis smell test and personality filter, then it's a first round interview with one of my senior devs. Pass that? 2 or more Directors meet to determine team and company fit. We just more than doubled our staff to 32 in the last 8 weeks and it went very, very well.
