The Graphical Resume- New Concept and Possible Innovation

I love exploring the possible intersections of technology and information, with the intent to improve or expedite knowledge sharing.

One of my recent epiphanies was related to the difficulty of efficiently reviewing resumes, especially technical resumes. Recruiters and managers spend huge amounts of time reviewing resumes (at least they used too) and automated tools have attempted to “mine” resumes to simplify the review process.

For your consideration, I offer the graphical resume (3 pages!)

A 2nd version of the graphical resume here (3 pages.)

And a hybrid one page resume combining the best of the graphical and traditional resume formats!

I am excited to hear what you think about this idea. Acknowledgements to Tableau Software, the tool used to create these examples!
