A British accent can often sound sophisticated and charming to the average American. Candidate #56 was going along swimmingly until they hit the last sentence, then it was right Into The Rubbish Bin.
Don't these people want a job? In today's economic environment, why would somebody submit a resume that is absolutely terrible and guarantees submission "Into The Circular File"? They aren't getting an interview, but we are getting a good laugh!

Candidate #55
Who doesn't love a reader submission? Candidate #55 was
applying for a proofreading position. I am sure the irony will not be
lost on you. Despite the fact our reader tossed this one Into The Circular File, the casual wording
of this resume will have it rising quickly to the top of the heap.

Candidate #54
There were a few reasons to toss this one Into The Circular File, but despite the perky start to the resume, I don't think I want to cross Candidate #54.

Candidate #53
Why do I think that a five-minute interview with you would take three hours? I am just going to save us both the time and send this right Into The Circular File.

Candidate #52
You are witnessing part of a resume that is in 24pt Helvetica and clocks in at 6 pages. A perfect example of bigger isn't always better. Not even sure if this font will fit Into The Circular File.
