Not Your Typical Resume Site - Duckies For Hire
April 25th, 2008I’m a huge fan of innovative sites. I love when someone takes a worn out idea, revamps it and turns the idea upside down by putting a personal creative touch into it. There are tons of personal resume sites on the web. The majority of these sites are I’m sorry to say, boring. These sites merely are resumes, but online. If you really want to be discovered by a company, it is necessary to go above and beyond the typical resume site. That’s because companies are looking for individuals who think outside of the proverbial box. I found a resume site that does just that.
Check out Duckies For Hire. At first glance it gives you somewhat of a chuckle, but then you realize the amount of thought that must have gone behind the site. The quote that really pulls you in is “crack team of affiliate marketing ducks with a unique skill set.” There is even a profile for each of the ducks under the About Duckies section. I love it.
From the navigational panel, you can see what the creator of this site brings to the table via her resume, the projects she has worked on, her credentials and some pretty influential quotes from powerful industry people.
If I owned a company and had to put together a team of people, someone who thought like this would definitely be the centerpiece of the team. As it is, I don’t think the creator of this site will be in the unemployment line for long at all. There is no doubt that someone is going to snatch her up quick.
