My resume is in the functional resume format(If anyone wants to know what it looks like i'll gladly upload a screenshot or just pm it to you). I've been told having one is bad even though there is a plausibility that your other work experiences can be relevant and applied to the current job you're applying for.

No, they're not bad. I use one, I've used the other types too and have gotten all interviews--that led to nowhere--from the functional resume and none from the chronological. I've used objectives and deleted the objective. I've followed all the advice about resumes and none has panned out.
