  1. Very creative stuff!!!! Excellent use of originality while portraying the much needed information required by employers. Absolutely love this series, great job. Would love to hear from the design community concerning my newly revamped site. Any critique would be greatly appreciated. My site is orlydesign.com. Thanks everyone!!!

  2. Jean Francois and Christiano Pirez have the most readable ones – they are the middle ground. Attractive, cool, shows their chops, but totally usable. The rest are very cool but way overblown for resumes. And stop it with the graphs already. Someone made a graph somewhere and now everyone is doing it.

  3. Good design is a balance of the functional and the aesthetic – unfortunately, although impacting, not one of these shows sufficient understanding of such a fundamental principle to instill confidence in anyone with an appreciation of design.

    Nice to look at but not anything I personally would consider remarkable I’m afraid.

    That said, the origami résumé does come VERY close and would be the only one of the bunch that I would read if I were hiring.

  4. Do not do this! These are all terrible ideas. Your resume needs to be readable. If you want to design something, then design the package or make a cover sheet. In large companies your resume probably will go through an HR person who will ditch your crazy resume if they can’t read/copy/fax it. Act like a professional, not a teenager with a myspace page.

  5. what about print-ability? while these are definitely creative and display skill and style, resume’s are a touchy subject for many, as they need to be easy to read and still convey some kind of style/creativity in order to stand out.

    It is a fine line between too much creative design, to stand out and be practical enough to communicate info without distracting or confusing. This can be said about any design but specifically resume/CV design is ultra touchy.

  6. Some really creative resume’s. Some of them work really well where as others I am not too keen on.

    I agree with Stratisphere… There is a fine line between too much creativity to a resume/CV. It should most definitely communicate your experiences more than the actual design. But I could also go against this idea and say; your work speaks louder than words.
