Resume Bloopers

JobMob has the 150 Funniest Resume Mistakes, Bloopers and Blunders Ever! The best argument for proofreading I’ve seen anywhere, although obviously some of these people really don’t want a job. Here’s a taste:

Application: How large was the department you worked in with your last company? “A: 3 stories.” (Resumania)

A resume listed a skill as “being bi-lingual in three languages” (Ask Annie’s)
Background: “28 dog years of experience in sales (four human).” (Resumania)

In the section that read “Emergency Contact Number” she wrote “911.” (Ask Annie’s)

Candidate drew a picture of a car on the outside of the envelope and said it was the hiring manager’s gift. (Careerbuilder.com)

Languages: “Fluent in English. Also I have been heard muttering Gibberish in my sleep.” (Resumania)

“Directed $25 million anal shipping and receiving operations.” (ResumePower.com)

    Oh man. I know it’s not from a resume but I use to work at a daycare center a few years back and one of the parents wrote as their child’s primary doctor’s phone number “911″. Hmm…
