How My Resume Looks Like Funny Pictures
When looking for a job, most candidates do all they can to make sure they have an outstanding résumé. These ballsy candidates went above and beyond to ensure theirs definitely stood out from the crowd – maybe a bit too much though?
Read on to see the funniest résumés employers have come across that literally had them rolling around on the floor laughing.
1. The excellent communicator
I mean kudos to his sky-high ego, but apart from being a comedian he hasn't demonstrated any transferable skills that will get him hired.

2. The drug dealer
This applicant is brutally honest… maybe too honest? It goes from bad to worse from no education to running a "Marijuana delivery service". It's clear he has some sales skills, but not the type you'd want in a professional establishment.

3. The self-loving actor
Is this really a résumé or a hilarious joke? If one picture wasn't enough, Daryl decided to share three. The fact that he was cast as a rapist is slightly alarming too!

4. A teen with a good sense of humour
This funny teen actually bagged himself a job at McDonald's with his awesome and honest answers.

5. Simply the best
This devilishly handsome candidate thinks he is the best thing since sliced bread. He's definitely brave for responding to a job application like this.

6. Probably one of the funniest résumés
I mean who else wouldn't be impressed with cat-like reflexes, a horse-like laugh and a large appetite?!

7. The boss
A self-proclaimed boss who is good at nearly everything, but has no work experience or education – who wouldn't want to take the risk and hire this 'stud-muffin'?

8. What an interesting hobby!
Brad had been sending out his résumé with this interesting hobby listed on it for a while before he realised that his friend had written it as a joke. Brad my friend, you got punked!

9. The zero f*cks guy
Although many of us give zero f*cks from time to time, it's probably not the best idea to list it on your resume…

10. Is he for real?
It has to be a practical joke; from the bad picture to the jail time story. I'm a little scared just reading his résumé, let alone meeting Mr Santangelo.
11. Ms Desperation
Besides the poorly written resume full of typos, nothing screams desperate more than HIRE ME written all over the bottom of this ridiculous résumé.

12. Job for the summer
Despite the obvious lack of punctuation and typography issues, this young teen "with a good soul" only wants a job for the summer. What a real go-getter!

13. Simplicity is key
I'm not quite sure that the direct approach will get this candidate the job. Any thoughts?

14. Forgot to proofread
So cringe! This candidate attached a funny picture of Nicholas Cage, instead of her actual résumé! Always remember to proofread and ensure your attachments are the correct ones.

15. Major typo
What a funny c*ck up of a resume. It's safe to say that this is one way you shouldn't apply for a catering position.

16. Rude!
Someone teach this applicant some manners, please! I'm all for a bit of light banter, but this is the worst resume I have ever seen. It's outright rude and obnoxious.

17. Devil wears what?
If you're going to reference a film - it's probably best that you double-check the title first. I've never heard of Devil Wears Prague – have you?

18. The distraction
Clearly, this candidates filter from brain to paper s*cks too. Although hilarious, his ego will clearly be a distraction to his personal work.

19. Unavailable references
Funny how this résumé wasn't burnt in the fire too…
BuzzFeed
20. Monkey business
Was this made by a 10-year-old on Word Art? This example will leave an outstanding impression, but maybe not the best one?
Huffington Post
In all seriousness, "43 percent of managers said they spend less than 60 seconds looking at a resume" according to a survey of 2,100 hiring managers conducted by CareerBuilder. If you had a minute to impress would you choose a funny resume like these?
