Sound advice...
This was some resume advice I just read on the ol' innernets:
“I once had a candidate show up on the front steps of our building and sing his resume to the tune of 'Oh Susanna' while playing the banjo," says James Hering, executive vice president and director of integrated marketing at TM Advertising, a unit of McCann-Erickson that works on behalf of American Airlines, among other clients.
"At all costs, avoid delivering your resume or credentials via singing telegram, mime or circus clown," Hering advises. "Clown equals no interview for sure."
That seems like pretty sound advice.
