Is a Web Resume for YOU?
By: Stefanie Spikell
Having your resume on a web site can be a real advantage. For some,
it is just the right tool to say "Hey, I''m up to speed on
technology." So if you are in the computer field or
telecommunications, it''s really a must.
I also recommend it for those of you who are heavy into
networking. If you pass out your card at lots of business
functions, put your web resume address right on your card -
you''d be surprised at how intriguing a web address can be.
People just love to travel to a wide variety of sites.
You''ll be surprised at how many will travel to your web
resume to review your background - and this can lead to many
new contacts.
For executives, the web resume is a wonderful tool. These
folks usually make a lot of phone call contacts when seeking
to change assignments. What better way to start the
conversation that to say, "You know my background, Joe, but
just bring up my web resume for a quick review while we''re
having our chat......you can find it at www.xxxxxxx.xxx."
There are no limits on WHO can use a web resume. A lot of it
is up to you. But it certainly is an extra that might just make you stand out from the crowd of competitors vying for that job you want.
