Hired someone who made a personal deck. Covered background, stories, strengths & weaknesses, values, principles, goals, how s/he thinks, etc. Great way to stand out. Going to now make this part of our interview process.
Here's a sample of slides: about me, my big challenge, strengths, weaknesses, experience, how I see the world, future plans, values, principles, 100-day plan, what motivates me, personality tests, reference quotes & list, how best to manage/work with me, etc. Anything!
Personally, I love stories. Makes the "interview" a lot more personable and fun.
"I grew up in X town. Didn't have much but worked my way up through persistence. Got lucky in Y but it didn't work out. Here's what I learned from that experience and why I want to work at Z."
