Brilliant Resumes on Craigslist – October 26, 2011
Your competition.
We’ve been providing our readers with a sneak peak of some of our favorite resumes found on Craigslist. After those long days of job hunting, sometimes we all need a good laugh.

Although entertaining, it’s doubtful that many Fortune 500 companies are prowling Craigslist for potential hires.
That said, let’s just see how tough your “competition” really is:
I never realized there were so many variations of ways to hand out flyers. This guy seems to have nailed them all. If you thought handing out a flyer simply meant extending your arm, and releasing your fingers, you were wrong. Never hurts to be overqualified.

It’s strange to find this in the Resume section of Craigslist. Well, not really. But if you’ve quit your job, and are ready for an adventure that will most likely end up in death by the hand of a serial killer, by all means, go to Mexico City.
Pay me to work. I am a hard worker. What work do I exactly do? Hard to say, but I want $1000 a week even if I’m unqualified. That’s how I read it.
