Job Seekers From The Past

Everyone's looking for a job. If you haven't been laid off, you might be soon, or else you need a second job to just keep up. What if historical characters had to go through the modern job application and interview process? Julius Caesar:
My last job involved a lot of office politics and back stabbing. I'd like to get away from all that.

Jesse James:
I can list among my experiences and skills: leadership, extensive travel, logistical organization, intimate understanding of firearms, and a knowledge of security measures at numerous banks.

Marie Antoinette:
My management style has been criticized, but I'd like to think of myself as a people person.

Joseph Guillotin:
I can give your company a head start on the competition.

Hamlet:
My position was eliminated in a hostile takeover.

Lucrezia Borgia:
My greatest accomplishment? After I took over the department, our competition just seemed to drop out of sight one by one.

Pandora:
I can bring a lot to your company. I like discovering new things.

Genghis Khan:
My primary talent is downsizing. On my last job I downsized my staff, my organization, and the populations of several countries.

Macbeth:
Would I go after my boss's job? Do I look like the kind of guy who would knock off his boss for a promotion?

Lady Godiva:
What do you mean this isn't business casual?

Elvis:
My last boss and I...say, are you going to eat those fries?
