Awesome looking site.<p>My two cents on the concept: As someone who has reviewed many resumes these stylized versions would certainly stand out but I'm afraid it wouldn't be in a positive way. I admit this is unfortunate, but I equate it to someone showing up to the office in a great eye-catching outfit that is not typical of office-wear. It shows a lack of understanding for 'how things are done' Now keep in mind I work in Banking/Cap Markets...I imagine that these resumes will be much more successful at more creative employers (start-ups, advertising, etc.).<p>Price seems very high. at $99 +$10 an applicant is actually going to be incentivized to apply to less employers. A lot of people (myself included) have stories about getting an awesome job that they almost didn't apply to. When the cost per submission is prohibitively expensive, it may do an applicant more harm than good.<p>Again, just my own personal constructive feedback. You guys clearly have an incredible knack for design. best of luck.
