I want to work at FeeFighters

Actual design is really mediocre, there's no portfolio, there's no example of a completed project, there's not much about why he actually wants to work at the target company. The entire thing is basically an HTML5 animation and he wants a frontend UI gig, presumably focused on actual interfaces, not animations.
Marketing 101 : It's all about ME (audience), not you (author). What can you do for me, why should I care, what do I get, why am I reading this? This resume is an outline of this guy's features. But nothing of how and why these features will benefit feefighters.
If I change the size by using the "zoom in" and "zoom out" commands on Safari on my Mac, at two of the possible sizes the text is cut off on the bottom right. So, a glitch on the technical side.
The picture bubbles on the right confuse me. They don't seem to care about clicks, just the mouse entering and exiting each bubble. Mouse exit causes each to slide so you can see a different part of the picture. Waving the mouse around seems to cause the picture to slide between the two positions.
The problem is that I can't tell if this is decorative, or if it's some kind of interface that I'm too dumb to figure out. Leaving the reader confused over what is supposed to be happening is a design failure.
Fix these, and it looks pretty good.
If you spent time creating this site, you would want at least to tell them why you want to work with them.
Not saying this is you... just that this is what some people might think.
Best part was the ninja star throw. Totally caught me off-guard :-)
EDIT: didn't see very much fee-fighters info in there though. Just a quick sentence at the end. Perhaps this was used for multiple companies? Not a bad idea, but I'd be looking for more directed job-search info if I were the hiring party.
And I wouldn't mention jQuery as a skill. I would instead mention JavaScript. You could still mention the bits about jQuery in the skill description. I am not too sure about Sass/Compass either.
You went through so much trouble and no portfolio?
