Pity interview, two boxes

Contrary to Legally Blonde, dyeing your resume pink and bathing it in Chanel No. 5 will not get you into Harvard, nor will it get you a job. In case you take career advice from Elle Woods, below you will find the worst resume mistakes in the history of resumes mistakes, followed by why these little errors are the reason why you're not even granted a pity interview. Spell check doesn't catch everything, and no one cares how active you were in Girl Scouts, unless you traveled to India to empower girls to sell Thin Mints. Which, in that case, we'll take two boxes.

I wonder what they mean by "pity interview" here? Though I know pity means pathetic. Similarly, Girl Scouts = an organization in USA that was developed for empowerment of women
Thin Mints = a Choclate
but can't understand what they mean by "two boxes" in this context.

a pity interview would be one given only because you feel sorry for the applicant. Girl scouts sell chocolates as a fund-raising exercise. two boxes of mint thins.
