After seeing this creative candy bar resume, I imagine someone told its creator that a little sweetness goes a long way during the interview process. Nick, the creator of this clever idea, then probably took that advice to a literal extreme.
It seems like everyone in the job hunt these days is working hard to differentiate themselves from the crowd and make their resume stand out. I really can't think of many other ways to stand out than to make a candy bar resume. They key question then becomes; what kind of candy bar is included with the resume? Of course, it's a Nestle Crunch bar.
