Rethinking the familiar resume
- sasvari 16y agoUsing infographics within/as a resume is definitely an interesting approach. Might give it a try some day ... anyway, somebody knows of a LaTeX package capable of producing decent looking timelines?
- wccrawford 16y agoThe linked examples of infographic resumes are really, really hard to read. If I were hiring a designer, I would probably power through it to see if they had the experience needed, but the difficulty in reading the resume would be a mark against them. You have to design for your audience. Because these are hard to read, an interviewer is going to be annoyed. The only one I might exempt from this is the first one by 'Michael Anderson'. While harder to read than a normal resume, it seems to present the same information, with a little humor added. Some of the graphics don't seem to mean anything (why do the lines change height?) but once you ignore those, the rest is pretty clear.
