Hire one for Creddle, yeah. You have an amazing starting point, just need that little extra (ie. someone who knows The Vignelli Canon backwards).
I've designed resumés for friends which HR managers have told me won their attention and priority simply by looking a level of craft and professionalism above the rest. The difference between a self-created Word resumé and one well-designed is exponential, especially in an environment where sensible people dwell.
Let me know if there's any way I can help with this. Cool project.
