Albert&#x27;s hack is definitely impressive, and would make him stand out. I&#x27;m surprised at some nay-sayers here.  Suggesting he use SVG? Nothing impressive about that.<p>I phone screen a lot, and would be impressed by Albert.  However, if you are strong on resume, knowledge, and interviewing, you don&#x27;t need any special tricks.  I think such tricks are important if your resume does not support the position you&#x27;re seeking: either a mediocre school, no degree, long unemployment, or switching industries.<p>As for acing a phone screen - no silver bullets here, but it pays to know something about the company and the screener.  I know we&#x27;re just company #923 to you, but don&#x27;t show that.
