As some of you may have heard, I recently lost my job at Isilon. In that great tradition, I have put up my resume. Have a look, and please comment on the content or presentation of either version:

Kenneth M. Sternberg, Senior Web and User Interface Developer and Designer.

On the resumes

[(Anonymous)]

Take my opinion with a piece of salt, as I'm not in HR, and I'm not any kind of career guru, but...

I like the two-column format that you use, and I think some of its positive messages might be sub/un-conscious. e.g. "I can do design that's somewhat different without it being obnoxious." Now that I think about it, I have enough experience in publication design to be aware that a two-column page can be very good for efficient use of space without obnoxious overcrowding.

On the whole, looking good, IMHO!

I do agree that "arrogant" and "slack" could confuse some possible employers who don't know what you're really like. I think they're better in a blog tagline than on top of a resume.
