I am looking for samples of resumes. Please link your resume, and state if it succesfully got you a job or not!
And feel free to drop any other hints about job hunting (I live in the Boston area).

with your style the normal corporate type resume woudln't seem to do your work justice.
the only thing i'll say is to try your best to keep all your info short and sweet and get it to fit on one page.
i'd send you mine but it's in a complete opposite style as your work.
good luck. (and yeah i got a job with it).

sometimes a bullet list summary at top is somewhat helpful.
Short and to the point is what I look for. If it's paragraphs, I usually don't read or skim.

use any of these:

mine is on my website in pdf format
it didn't "get" me a job, but I sent it out a lot and I got a lot of responses. just the way a resume looks isn't going to get you a job, its what's on your resume. how it looks will just determine whether they think you have half a brain or not. I recommend keeping it pretty straight forward, don't do anything crazy, just clean and composed and intelligent. they'll bite, it just takes time, it does with everyone.
MLP! I went to purdue, ya bloody hoosier!
