I spent some time last week revamping my resume out of the traditional narrative to a more graphical, user-friendly, and somewhat more descriptive format. The use of color, graphics, and images is there to captivate the reader and push them to read more. My resume now tells a different story of my career path and my skill set – beyond the traditional, “I supervised 9 people will working on this project…blah, blah, blah.” It has a focus on short blurbs and really a skill-centric approach. Yes, my traditional narrative resume still exists; to be honest, I’ll probably still send the traditional out if I apply for jobs. However, I’m planning to say something to the effect of: “To learn more about me, check out my resume online.”
Without further ado, here’s my graphical resume.
