As an engineer, I find almost every aspect of this resume to be horrible. The one non-horrible part is the amount of money he claims to have raised for his various projects, because it is related to actual job performance. But since he wants to be a product manager, even that is off-message.

At least this guy isn't pitching himself as a marketer because his resume is a huge fail.
He clearly read the memo about what constitutes as design porn. Now, he should invest in learning about audience expectation and communicating signal. For starters, the so-called resume is pretty difficult to parse if someone is trying to quickly gauge to interview you or not.

I think the resume is terrible, but even worse is the idea that you need a resume to get a job. If you need a resume to get a job, you're probably doing it wrong. You might need one to appease some paper-shuffler in HR, but for skilled professionals with good personal networks a resume is almost never necessary.

hmm... this actually gives me an idea for a project/website. you plug your linkedin account and it builds a page with all those fancy colors and graphics, and charts, etc takes dates of your jobs, ask you for likes and dislikes, etc etc.. and then you can choose from 5 different templates... and your own subdomain...
