I've considered making a resume where the first half of the first page is just a paragraph filled with as many high-profile buzzwords as possible. I'm still curios to see what would happen.
- Zombieball 14y agoThe real trick is to put this in the footer of the resume in size 1pt font. When you print off or look @ your resume it is pretty much not visible. But, you can kick resume scanning software in the face, hi-ya!

- Zombieball 14y agoSo simple! How did I not think of this? Cheers mate!
- aerique 14y agoI did have a buzzwords section in my last resume exactly like you mentioned. Me and the people that interviewed me for the company I currently work for had a good laugh about it.
- arethuza 14y agoI've seen CVs that literally have most of a page filled with buzz words and acronyms - pretty much SEO for whatever tools recruiters use to search. Unfortunately, candidates who take this kind of approach seem to list a lot of technologies they have only heard of or been in the same room as. If someone lists a technology in their CV I do rather expect them to know what it is and what it is generally used for and good and bad points.
