But it wasn't just any photo the candidate decided to use: "They chose their driver's license photo," she says, "which, I don't think anybody looks good in their driver's license photo." "I think I have a picture of it somewhere," she adds, "because I just couldn't believe that you would freshly print out your resume, you're like, 'you know what this is really missing?

In 2007, Lindsay Mustain was working as a recruiter at Comcast looking to fill a fairly entry level call center role. The job attracted "a variety of level of candidates," she says, adding that "sometimes you get some really interesting ones." "I honestly have no idea what he was doing," says the former Amazon recruiter and now CEO of talent development company Talent Paradigm about the candidate. The first two pages of this candidate's resume were pretty standard, says Mustain, who is all for a two-page resume in general. "The very last page was a picture, a full-blown picture of him holding a shotgun."

☆ The only good age for applying for a job is 35, according to a former Amazon recruiter. 'Otherwise you're too old and overqualified or you're too young and under-qualified'

According to Lindsay Mustain, a former Amazon recruiter turned career coach, there's only one good age for job searching and that's 35. "Otherwise you're too old and overqualified or you're too young and under-qualified," she said. And don't list your graduation year because it "invites employers to do math." Explain that you're thinking about your next move and that you're open to advice and warm introductions. Mustain suggests scouring LinkedIn to look for the movers and shakers in your industry.
