  Nice infographic!

    One of the things in mind (as I am not a designer) is that this would make more sense in html, css and svg (it's already on svg), making the graphic talk about your own skills. I think the same about your site. It's good, but you would take more of it by applying some css and javascript magic to all the images that include text (and then, exclude the text from the image).

  You really have 'Micro$oft' on your 'resumé'? That's so childish...
  • hk_kh 14y ago
    A company that bases his techs on Microsoft products or is sensitive about this would be put off by reading it. It keeps 'serious' companies from contacting me, improving my accuracy on finding a position I can handle without headaches.

      The word also has a strong association with devs who are immature or platform religious. It's possible you would be ok working with others of this mindset, but I think you're better off w/out it. No ad-homs intended, just wouldn't want you to miss opportunities with companies that frown upon being close-minded (but are still non-microsoft).

        It's possible at the time of doing it I was platform religious and did a bad pun. It's also possible I am still. But you both make a valid point on it being perceived as immature, and so I will note it for the next time I use this. Thanks for the suggestion.

      I'm not certain I understand what you're trying to say here. Are you saying that you would prefer to work with a less 'serious' company that doesn't care about the $ in Micro$oft?
      • hk_kh 14y ago
        That plus, even though it is valid work experience, I have had enough of setting IIS, Exchange, Microsoft CRM, bad .NET accounting apps that use mdb as a DBMS, that I would prefer not to be on the position where I have to deal with that again.
        • vecinu 14y ago
          So what you are saying is that you would prefer to just develop in and manage anything other than MS products?
          • hk_kh 14y ago
            Yes, but not just that. If the company I am applying to bases their solutions on Microsoft products, odds are I am not the right fit for their open position, and somewhere on HR or in my task to find a job there has been an error.

    I'm inclined to agree. If I were hiring and I saw this in a pile of CV's and portfolios I would probably ditch it and move on.

  Surely putting the Cambridge logo on your CV to represent an ESOL qualification awarded by the university is a bit misleading?
  • hk_kh 14y ago
    The fear on the English level of an spaniard to foreign companies is such a big deal that I decided to play that card. I would prefer not to put that there, as FCE is not that much of an achievement.

      Don't do it. It's tacky and misleading.
