Brilliant Resumes on Craigslist – May 9, 2012

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.

If we can provide one piece of advice, don’t follow any of the resume postings on Craigslist.

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:

Best house cleaners in the world? When your mother and aunt are involved it is believable.

Why work yourself when you can buy a pug to do the work for you? Brilliant idea. To maximize profits, make him work at the young age of 3 months. What we find the most surprising: the pug knows the difference between high five and “pound it.”

Have to make money somehow?

Age 39 and no work experience? How do you make it 39 years without any qualifications or skills? Regardless, parking or storage just seems like such a strange niche to pursue.

Here is your standard Craigslist post. Lots of various skills that make the person capable for quite a few different jobs. What sticks out to me the most however, is army skills. We’ve come across many Craigslist resumes but never have seen army skills. This person can shoot, kill, navigate, and the list probably goes on and on. We’d hire them.

  1. What I want to know is, if these housekeepers are so amazing, why would I need to dish out 600 bucks to have them there every single day? By the time day 7 rolls around, what the hell is left to clean? A couple of dishes from the night before?
