Philippe Dubost is one clever web product manager. Rather than producing a boring, print resume or an overwhelming online resume, he designed his to resemble an Amazon product page.

The resume has attracted a lot of attention, leading him to post an "Instant update" on his Amazon page: "Hi everyone, thank you so much for the overwhelming (and unexpected!) nice feedback! I'll share what happens on twitter." Dubost also has appeared on news programs to talk about his "Amaz-ing" resume.

When asked why Dubost has so many one-star reviews, he tweeted: "lots of ex-girlfriends."

Here are two other recent attempts to get noticed on the job market: 

• A woman listed herself on eBay.
• A man launched a website (googlepleasehire.me) and pitch video.
  

Discussion Starters:

• What's your view of Dubost's resume? Gimmicky, clever, or something else?
• What risks would you be willing to take to get hired?
• For what industries or type of positions would this approach be most and least effective?
