I used to place at the bottom of my resume that I did a killer Kermit the Frog impression. Just to see if people were reading it.

Not once did anyone ever ask me about it.

And to top it off, the resume is subliterate.

- “I strive in intense, competitive environments.” Do you, now? Strive to do what? Or did you mean “thrive”?

- “I live everyday [sic] with passion.” Gargh! [Clutches head]

According to his resume, he’s a master in Tai Chi and Shaolin Kung Fu (8th Dan)… both of which are Chinese Martial Arts, and yet he’s wearing a traditional Korean TaeKwonDo uniform to break bricks?

If I was as cool as this dude, I would cut my own nuts off.

He is what the Germans would call “Das Uber Geigh”

his resume: http://www.ivygateblog.com/images/vayner.pdf

He’s the CEO of a nonprofit for kids. (everybody at once: awwwwwwwwwww)

It does sound like a nice little venture, but look at his website: http://www.empowerachild.org/

Hmm. Even his “donate” link doesn’t work.

I think advice is always better when it rhymes (conceive, achieve, believe!)

I’d be pretty ticked if I was Radomir Kovacevic.

so. obnoxious.

He’s actually trying to give advice for success to potential employers. If you know so much about it why are you sending resumes out?

And at the end he is listed as CEO and Professional Athlete. CEO of what? Professional athletic what?

What an annoying prick.

1. There are dudes at my gym who can bench 300+. Their arms are EASILY bigger than this guy. I call bullshit on his lifting.
2. This resume is fine and dandy, but it’s hardly a resume of any merit without listing some ACHIEVEMENTS. All this is is some fashion of tony robbins yo ho ho inspirational stuff.
3. Hey, I just started my own company. We don’t have a product, or actually any sort of license to operate or business model. But I’m the CEO.

There’s a tag missing up there: Douchebag

and he can stand still while some chick dances around him, and he can break prescored bricks. I have to wonder how a video that actually reveals a pathological confusion between talent and mediocrity can get you a job at A&P, much less at UBS.
