I'm sure you've got a template that your school recommended, but if you doesn't feel it gets across who you are, why not find/make a different one? I've even heard of some people who are starting to create video resumes - perhaps you don't need to go that far, but I'm sure you can find a way to get across your interests and skills as well as just your academics and work experience - when we received applications for a job posting last year, we got all sorts of different styles of things. As long as it still looks professional, then it's probably worth a try... Why not change your resume style?

Bring a bottle of vodka to your next job interview and halfway through, whip it out and offer it around. And don't fuck with it, take a giant glug and act like it's normal. But really? Interview well. Get that foot in the door and work it. Interview well. Seriously. Bring a bottle of vodka to your next job interview and halfway through, whip it out and offer it around.

It's almost the same as someone who blogs about wanting to become a mom. Would a company not hire that woman just because they might need to go on maternity leave within the next 3 years?
