If you really don't want the job ......

Actual resume bloopers:


"I demand a salary commiserate with my experience."

"You will want me to be Head Honcho in no time."

"Instrumental in ruining entire operation of a Midwest chain store."

"I have an excellent track record, although I am not a horse."

"My goal is to be a meteorologist. But since I possess no training in meteorology, I suppose I should try being a stock broker."

"Note: Please don't misconstrue my 14 jobs as 'job-hopping.' I have never quit a job."
