Fake Amazon Page Resume for Philippe Dubost, Web Product Manager Goes Viral

We don’t know what his return policy is, but French citizen Philippe Dubost’s resume, which looks like a fake Amazon page, complete with fake Amazon reviews, has quickly become an Internet sensation. Residing in Paris, the web product manager designed PhilDub.com to look for a job abroad, as he is ready to travel.

Titled “Philippe’s Amaz’ing Resume,” Dubost fashioned a perfect Amazon page, and the detail is impressive. The little touches include:

The title page with a link to hire him:

An “Add to Cart” option which links to his email address:

The ability to ship him from France:

Product specs, including his background:

And a detailed Product Description:

This is no doubt a clever way to present your resume, especially as a web product manager. If you’d like to see Dubost’s full resume, go here.
