I haven't looked at this closely (just taking a break at work), but there's clearly a difference in styles & theme between the US and international resumes. International students hoping to get a job in the US need to learn to target their resumes better. If anyone is interested, take a look at the 2-page resume (CV actually, which explains some of the difference) starting on p.50. I hate to be harsh, but these two pages have zero value in a job hunt in the US, and probably anywhere else for that matter.
1. He uses 1/3 of the first page to list his name and address
2. He uses a chunk of the second page to list language skills in some unknown (to me at least) format
3. He uses 1/2 of the first page listing his school experiences back to elementary school (!?!?), yet doesn't provide a single useful tidbit
4. He spends a full page listing the positions he's held, yet doesn't say a single word about what he did, what he learned or how he contributed
A resume needs to include points that grab interest, and prompt people reading it to want to learn more and ask questions. The only thing on these entire two pages with any value at all is his job as a crepe maker, which should be valuable for about 45 seconds of conversation. Other than that, the entire thing is completely forgettable. I'm shocked that his career office would let something like this come out, but ultimately each person is responsible for themselves. Tragic really. There isn't enough content here to merit 1/2 page, let alone two pages.

Oh, I don't know if anyone else noticed, but I think this is a conference for business school leaders. It struck me that two Darden attendees were the class president from last year and this year; and it seems that many attendees were leaders from their schools.
