> Document your accomplishments I’ve had a quarterly updated resume and longer form career document for over a decade. I don’t think I’ve ever had to update my resume specifically for a job opportunity. It’s constantly updated. > While you still have access to Slack, ask your manager, previous managers, and/or colleagues you worked closely with if they would be willing to give a reference check for you for your next role. You should already have them as contacts on LinkedIn > Potentially also ask for endorsements on LinkedIn On the other hand LinkedIn is merely a place to keep my contacts. I find it to be more of a self aggrandizing cesspool than Facebook.

> On the other hand LinkedIn is merely a place to keep my contacts. I find it to be more of a self aggrandizing cesspool than Facebook. People who post on there with bullshit accomplishments are hilarious. One person in particular who I used to work with had a problem with being “humbled”. As in “I am humbled that the presidential honors society recognized that I am one of the top 12 cyber warriors in my apartment building.” Many of my former colleagues gravitate towards security stuff because there’s a lot of hiring going on and pay is high. So LinkedIn is now littered with would be cyber-commandos clucking about kill chains, ooda loops, and spouting ridiculous military jargon.
