Anything but standard info in standard format and order is likely to go unseen by any human and to screw up the auto-parse into online forms. I have used all kinds of oddball elements on resumes in the past, for creative hiring when it was applicant-to-human, but unless it's a rare case where you know your resume is going to land in front of an empowered human's eyes without "processing," gimmicks are a waste or a downcheck.

The only headline I may use, is to bold my name.

A resume is not a newspaper, no headline needed.

Unless you're submitting for some creative type position don't use anything gimmicky. It reads awkward and out of touch with professional norms and expectations.

No, I haven't written any headline in my resume other than my name.
