I like the first 2/3, the last can be interpreted as padding by some eyes. I’ve had that for most of my career and never had it called that. I do have a short and dense resume tho, so I think the total package must be considered with each option.
I always do intro/cover letters tho, and have something like “Professional Contributions,” and Education listing F/LOSS with my mid-career CS degree, like extra-curriculars from coding.
- fao_ 7y agoI got that vibe from it too to be quite honest. It was mostly put there with an "it can't hurt to put it in" attitude, but it might be worth taking it out as I already have an article about it on my website. Hm, yeah. I don't really have much of a formal education to rely on, I was unschooled. It's an awkward thing. Personally I don't feel that my work is particularly good, especially since I don't have a specific yardstick to work off, but the people I've worked alongside or have shown it to have told be that I'm 'very knowledgable', which feels weird. I've been wondering about spending on some AWS certifications and the like just to improve the 'qualifications' section, or hiring someone to look at my CV and give a professional opinion on it.
