I agree with most of what you said. I'm not a designer nor a developer, and had to hack this together in the last few days since, as I'm sure you're aware, the startup hiring market is red hot and am already getting a few offers. This was all meant to be temporary, an MVP if you will.
Unfortunately, it had to go up today and ran out of time to handle these "devil details". There are reasons for some of this, but I did want to thank you for your candid response! :)

Definitely unique and a smart way to market yourself for a product manager position within the tech arena. Good luck and please share any feedback you receive from potential employers.
This is a great concept, especially when you're trying to set yourself apart from the pack. I'm curious to see what kind of results you get.
Would love to see some kind of infographic after all is said and done. How many people contacted, how many interviews, etc. Good luck!
Would you consider getting hired by a B- team? If not, Lets talk in a couple years. Good luck to you.
Just because your product is at MVP stage doesn't mean you're B-team. It just means you're the new news :)
Nice work! You obviously are creative, funny and can think out of the box =). Impressive resume.
I'm available to help you snap necks and cash checks immediately.
1. Why does the modal shadowbox type window keep switching between two images automatically? It doesn't really give me enough time to read any of the text.
2. Why are they images? Is there any particular reason that the text isn't just plain old text? This is going to hurt SEO and viewing on different screen size, devices, etc.
3. Why have a slider if I can't interact with it?
4. Corners. Some boxes have square corners, some have rounded. It seems a bit arbitrary.
5. Shadows. Some boxes have drop shadows, and some don't. I can understand drop shadows when you are trying to go for skeuomorphism, but some of your shadows seem pretty arbitrary. On your homepage, some text have drop shadows and other text and images have inner shadows. Whats the point?
6. Your pictures aren't crisp. I see either compression artifacts or moire artifacts that anti-aliasing can fix.
7. Colors. You should improve the color palette both on this and your homepage. The colors are a bit dull looking and I can't sense a clear design logic behind your color choices.
