this was a resume i made trying to land a writing job at university of maryland's magazine. i didn't get the job but was proud of the effort. it's all mine including the photo (and even the pencils).
On first glance it looks good and fooled me to think it was a mag cover. On closer look it became more obvious and the intention is easily recognisable. Considering the other comments, there is a clash in the typography and the semiotics of the design. It looks like a professional production of a kids club newsletter. The message doesn't say 'I'm a professional and skilled and ready for business'.

@ocallaghantj, Also not trying to be mean, but perhaps Googling "correct grammar" would prevent YOU from appearing to be 5 years old. Lesson 1: "Your" vs "You're". Next up: Punctuation and capitalization.
nice try, but i'm not trying to be mean, if you want to reach outside the box, pleas google the font's you want to use, to see what you are communicating in there use. like your mast head, is in papyrus, communicates that your 5 years old. the photo is not bad, but the only thing in any kind of focus is the eraser, what are you trying to communicate. If you want to work for a rag you might want to read up on layout books,
I love this! Looks great and a good idea! The only thing that I don't like is the title, whether or not it's the font it's self, or just the far off dropshadow and glow, I think if you took those off it would help it pop more, but I still really like this!
