More resumes:
To Dr. Plastic,I am not quite through with getting Associate Degree in Health Administration now. Will finish October 25, 2007. I feel I would be a good asset to your office thank you
No, thank you!
Attached please find a copy of my resume, i would like to take this opportunity to apply for the medical front desk position. I have 3 years experience as a Registrar, along with medical billing and collection.I look forward to hearing from you soon
But you won't, because that would require you to send your resume to the correct address.
Update:
Another good one:
Dear Sirs, I am writing to you in regard to the position for a Medical Front Office which was advertised on ajc web site. I have enclosed a copy of my resume to provide you with an overview of my skills and experience. I believe I am capable of performing the duties that is required. My most recent position has developed my communication and organization skills I wish to build on my career and I believe that this position is bale to offer that. I am ready to take on more responsibilities and I am very eager to learn new tasks.
Better keep developing those skills....
You'll enjoy the demotivational posters at despair.com if you've never seen them before. My current favorite:
Also:
Despite the 20+ resumes I've received in the past few days, I am not a medical front office and I don't need to hire a receptionist. I can only assume that "doctor plastic" is hiring, and that the, uh, less qualified applicants are spamming my email address by mistake.
Should I post excerpts from some of the funniest? I'm so conflicted....
(All formatting, spelling, et cetera as per originals.)
This one Capitalizes like she's Writing the Declaration of Independence:
My impeccable track record in a fast paced Medical facility makes me an idea candidate for your Medical Receptionist position! ...My Employers, as well as Patients have recognized my Customer Service skills, communication and leadership abilities and personal initiative.
This next one can't be fully appreciated without the ten different fonts used, but here's a sample:
Objective:To obtain a position as a certified nursing assistant or a medical assistant, in a medical office or hospital setting and provide quality care for my patients. ...Patient Accts Rep/Collections 1999-2006
XXX Hospital
Responsibilities were as follows, but not limited to: filing monitoring patient accts, posting patient payments, maintaining the highest level of customer service. coding and some billing scheduling appointments, managing the front and back office. verification of all insurance, admissions, customer service, medical records.
And customer service! But most importantly, filing.
At least this one has enthusiasm:
I'm looking forward in working with your company and bringing the best of my work.
Bring it!
Here's my earlier post in which I solicited input on the funniest joke ever. Some of the submitted jokes were pretty good. Here's an article about the connection between laughing and lying (via GeekPress who asks "are you a good liar?" and Marginal Revolution where Alex Tabarrok says he's a lousy liar) in which the authors performed a study to find the funniest joke ever.
My favorite: What's brown and sticky?
