Ok, who's the first person to say what is the worst part (IMO) of this person's website.

http://www.sjon.org/res/resume.htm

2 hints, its not his picture or his name...

Winner gets something (TBD) either mailed or delivered... :)

If only he'd given his mother's maiden name I could finally buy that trip to Aruba that I've been dreaming of...on his time.

Let's see:
1. SSN listed
2. DOB listed
3. That he's single (tacky)
4. THAT PICTURE (AAAAAAAAAAAAA)

Ding, ding, we have a winner!

Exactly the answer that I thought. Actually, you might be able to find his mothers maiden name in his family section, oh, and he actually lists why he's single (just check out his personal section)...

Wow. Just. Wow.

Guess this guy doesn't believe in TMI.

Nope and since he only has to justify it to himself...

Well, the most concerning parts are the SS number and marital/health statuses.

Aren't you supposed to list everything from most recent to least?

See above, if you would have had Date of birth, I would have declared double winners!

The most recent to last is sometimes the best as that is how people want to see it, but sometimes the most relevant info should be at the top, even if it was two positions ago..

Aw rats. I forgot that DOB isn't okay on a resume.

They can put it (and most from Europe do), but it might just be used for some type of discrimination.

My overall view was that anyone could take his info steal his identity - stupid man.

Well, I think the thing going most against it is it cannot easily be printed out and it is like 400 pages long.

What a dweeb.

Yeah, major dweeb. I'm still surprised when I see resumes like this out there. I'm sure that he does have a different version that he sends out, but who knows!

See above for the winner.

Well, it's pretty d*** stupid to list your SSN on a publically accessible website, so I'm going to guess that.

Though marital/health status on a resume is up there too.

azpapillion January 24 2008, 19:46:36 UTC
Yeah, the real stupid thing is to combine both the SSN and DOB - hello - identity theft!

See above for the winner! :)

It's SOOOOO bad.

Technically, starting from the top, the first thing wrong is that he used one accent mark in “résumé”. Leaving them both out is acceptable, or both in, but not one or the other.

Certainly not the WORST problem, but it’s the first.

Yep, you got it - its SOOO bad. Actually, its a perfect example of what NOT to do...

What not to wear, meet your counterpart - what not to do on your resume...

See above for the winner!
