Standing out from the crowd can be a good thing or a bad thing - it depends. Take the ongoing saga of Britney Spears - she certainly stands out in the highly populated celebrity arena but not necessarily with positive spin. Contrast that with Oprah and her mission of giving back - her personal brand consistently conveys caring for others and integrity.
In the crowded job search and careers arena, your resume can also stand out - for better or for worse. In fact, Seth Godin's post "Why bother having a resume?" captured the potential employer's frustration with the overwhelming lack of resume quality. While I do not agree with Seth about totally eliminating resumes (HR folks do still expect to see such a document and application systems are currently set up around collecting and screening resumes), I DO agree that your most critical self-marketing piece (your resume) had better be remarkable.
