Atlantic Business Magazine is currently running it’s Great Ad Experiment where ad agencies create three separate full page ads.

The first five all created three separate full page ads for three separate issues of the magazine whereas the last agency designed three consecutive full-page ads the lead into one another in the same issue.

There are three local agencies competing in this competition; The Idea Factory, NL Colour, and Spark Marketing.

From now until May 28th voting is open for you to select your favorite campaign.

My friend Jedediah Baker submitted this short clip (along with some of his portfolio) when applying for a creative position at The Idea Factory.

I think the idea of submitting a job application without a resume is a terrific way to stand out.

I have always complained about references on resumes. I hate that they are such an integral part of the resume because they penalize the loyal employee. After working my last position for two years my old references seemed obsolete. One of those references was a professor I had one semester who I am sure could barely have tons to say about a student she hadn’t seen in years.

Anyways, I thought this a very clever way to combat the traditional resume.
