The resume makes use of an egg-shaped smiling cartoon that praises the company and boasts Abbas' qualifications. The name of the creative job application is 'Yologilvy,' with the cute character greeting the company by saying "Hellogilvy." Other GIFs state the words "You're My Herogilvy" and "I Have So Much to Showgilvy." Abbas hopes that her unconventional resume will capture the attention of recruiters at the renowned agency and aid in landing her a job interview.
