Sounds an interesting idea, resume’s are always a sticking point for a lot of people, it will be interesting to see those that you post.
I find there is less emphasis on resume’s them than there was in the past, I havent even been asked for one in the last two jobs I applied for as companies now seem to want everything in their own format, though if you want to approach a company not directly recruiting then they are indespensible.
I think depending on the industry you are in, resumes or even portofilos maybe required. We’re excited to show some of the changes we have made to peoples’ resumes
Eh, I used to be a killer resume writer but did not need it for the last little while… been nearly 1.5 years since I last submitted my resume.
For me, my introduction to business people comes in these forms :
1. referrals
2. meetings (whether by random or through a warm-lead)
3. marketing presentation
Do marketing presentations/proposals qualify?
You must have some sort of portfolio of some sorts that you show people your work (online, website, hard copy, etc.). This would be similar to a resume in that you get to show your wealth of experience through a medium.
It’s great when you go by referrals and don’t need a resume. But you want to make sure you plan for the best, but prepare for the worst (keep that resume)
Its a good point about the industry you are in.
