QR -- two dimensional barcodes that were originally designed for the automotive industry. Due to its potential for quick readability and storing additional information within confined space, QR codes have become a recent product of extensive experimentation.
Victor Petit was one of many professionals that have gone through difficulties securing work. In the current job market, using inventive measures can give you an edge over your competition.
His resume looks as standard as any other, until you flip over the document and find a full size image of his face. Something, however, is missing.
Where his mouth should be, a QR code was substituted.
When potential employers scan the code and place their phone on top of Petit's resume, a video loads revealing the job hunter's mouth.
This both completes the image and allows Victor to include an interactive component to his resume -- a way to introduce himself and make the job application more memorable.
Since Victor introduced this idea and it went viral, several copycat versions have appeared online.
