Those are fine looking templates, and I like the idea of using a bit of splashiness to stand out from the crowd. I just worry that the end result might be that I'm taken less seriously as a candidate than the one who used the old, traditional format.

For what it's worth, I almost wish I was applying for a job at a commercial art house, just so I could use that black resume. Print that bad boy on some heavy, glossy stock, and there's no way they can turn you down!
