You know how hard it is to distill your experiences and accomplishments into a meaningful, one-page resume.

So, what if we told you to cram them all into one tweet?

That’s exactly what we did at our live-tweet virtual career fair! While we chatted with job search experts at an event for NYC’s Social Media Week, we asked readers to submit 140-character resumes for a chance to wow potential employers.

We weren’t quite sure what to expect, but they blew us away—with everything from direct, powerful descriptions of their work to rhymes and poems to even a Vine resume.

So, we just had to share a few of our favorites. Whether or not you want to announce to the Twitterverse that you’re looking for a new gig, check out these tweets for a lesson in telling your story in a short, creative, and effective way.
