Paper Cup Resume

Resumes are Resumes. Words typed up on a blank sheet of paper. Do you really want that job you are striving to get? You definitely won't stand out with your average joe-shmo paper one. Do something different. Stand out.

Some may wonder who actually makes their resume "non-resume-ish." I know someone who put their resume on a coffee cup, not 8x11'' white paper. That was ages ago. To this day she is still known as the coffee cup girl.

Stumped as to what to do? Do something in your field - like this facebook girl. Her resume is all over the internet now.

Just sit down and write out stuff having to do with your area of expertise. Like all good advertising ideas, the ah-ha moment will come to you at some point.
