@ resume/CV no 1. Anyone getting low grades such as that in the dossiest possible subjects only deserves to work in a Mcjob. Yes, I am a bastard but with the amount of graduates being churned out in the UK, we can only afford to take on the brightest.

All of these are terrible; too much clutter. I would guess that 90% of these would get thrown out upon first glance for the visual clusterf*** that they are. The rest would be discarded shortly after acertaining they contain little to no information relating to professional expertise.

Considering that these are all art/graphic related resumes they do their job considerably well. I think you're missing the point here, Sven. Creative resumes catch the eyes of companies/clients looking for an artist to do work for them. However, a lot are too cluttered, you are right.

These look like an art project for a class at some design school, not a serious CV.
I read hundreds of resumes a week. These get passed around the office and talked about, but are seldom taken seriously. In fact, many with photos/headshots such as these are discouraged in order to avoid any appearance of pre-selection bias for race, age, etc.
In the end, it's all about how clearly you communicate your experience and skills match with the needs of the position being hired. Creative colors, fonts and paper don't add much, and can detract as immature, unprofessional or "too cutesy".
Unless you're applying to an art school or comic book publisher, of course...
