Resume (for your consideration)
OK before we all jump to bad conclusions, let me start by saying that I am not leaving the industry, I am not looking to leave the industry, and nothing negative has happened that might have caused me to contemplate leaving the industry. I'm not looking to leave Digital Playground. Nothing about my current position in porn is changing anytime soon. With that out of the way, I was asked for my resume today. I was asked by someone who doesn't know what I do. I was just looking into what would have been a cool volunteer job before I realized I had to undergo a four hour interview, and turn in said resume. I'm not that dedicated to the volunteer thing. I'm sorry.
But I am curious about what my resume might look like, if say, Cal Osha tries to shut us down through the back door with condom regulation or Shelly Lubben lies to the legislature again to put our merchandise in a tax bracket that would run us out of business and I find myself treading the cold dark waters of today's job market.
Here goes:

Commendations: AVN Award Winner - Best Actress for Rawhide 2 in the month of January, 2011.
First of all, you will never even get a first interview if there are typo’s on your resume. I believe you “Spend AN obscene of money on dresses”.
Second, you need to show a continued progression of responsibilities. For example, going from McDonalds to Taco Bell to PetSmart is an obvious progressive track you were on.
Then skip ahead a few years and you were a “Contract Star” with all the responsibilities and skills of such an employee. For two employers you held that “Contract Star” title.
And then you blossomed. You became a writer and a co-host. That is big stuff. Very impressive! What most would expect is that now you would become move on to become an “owner” or “producer”. But your progression stops suddenly this year. Alas, you are back to just the “Contract Star”. But don’t worry Kayden, we all have lulls.
You will also need to be ready for the typical interview questions. Many interviewers are interested in the transitions from one position to another. For example, can you explain why you would make the switch from being a waitress at Denny’s to working as a stripper at Risky Business when Denny’s offered stability, pretty steady hours, full medical benefits after 10 years and good discounts on food? What was it about your trail guide experience that most prepared you for your future positions? How did the slings and arrows you withstood as a writer impact your co-hosting form?
But then if somebody reading this resume has chills go up the back of their neck when they got to the “deep throats 7 inches” part like I did, you might not have to answer any questions and will just be able to show up for work.

Fucking hilarious.
Although you've violated the "one page" rule ;-).
Nice resume,although mine is configured very differently
Not trying to sound like a dick, as you should be proud of all your accomplishments. But that being said - The coolest of your skill set is without a doubt your ability to "drive a 6 speed, tow a 5th wheel, and back an F250 into a compact parking space!"
Also, it must be said, as awful as the "food" is. Nothing beats Dennys at 3 in the mourning. I've found that nothing aids in forgetting the shame of the the nights events better then a 'French Toast Slam.' Judge if you will, but thats comfort food.
OBTW - JMStLou, No one cares about spelling, or the people who attempt to enforce it on the F'in Internet.
This is absolutely awesome..I don't always get on here but when i do you always have something good for me to read....and why are you trying to critique her resume JMStlou....I stopped reading your post after the first paragraph.... Kayden Kross is sexy as hell and a damn good porn star so let her do her damn job Thank You, have a nice day
I read that a few days ago and just remembered I NEED to comment.
That was AWESOME! Hysterical, raw and honest. THAT'S why I'm a fan!
Nice! Had a great laugh! :)
Kayden, just two words in my best Donald Trump impersonation: "You're Hired"
Damn the funny thing is that you have done more stuff in you life than anyone at your age. Shit more than myself....
