Last summer we interviewed for an communications associate position. One of the resumes that came across my desk had a section for "Accomplishments". Next to it this guy had actually listed "Homecoming King 1994". First of all, why would you list that as an "accomplishment", second of all TEN YEARS had passed! We got a huge laugh out of it and to this day when someone does something good we say "That was great! I mean...you're no HOMECOMING KING...but good job" poor guy.

LOL! I guess he peaked early in life. I knew a guy coming out of college who listed pig calling...seriously. He thought it would make for a good interview ice breaker. Too bad he never got any interviews.
