With job availability at an all-time low, applicants are stepping it up when it comes to their credentials and are wowing employers with creative resume submissions. These examples range from wine bottle resumes to spy-themed CVs that would give 007 a run for his money.
Impressing today's employer requires applicants to get creative and to go above and beyond the requirement of a typical CV. Standouts from this list include wine and beer-themed credentials that are perfect for brewery, winery and distillery positions or jobs in the service industry field.
Other favorites include Infographic style CVs that are clean, polished and visually appealing to employers as well as Disney Villain resumes that will make employers smile even if they don't hire you. No matter what job you're hoping to land--from advertising and graphic design to journalism and business internships--these resumes are a great point of inspiration during your journey to success.
