Visual resumes

[andywestken]

Having just made the brave step to add color to my resume, or even cv, I am now wondering if I am taking too small a step.

While wondering about color, I googled about to see how far people have taken it. Pretty far when it comes to graphic artists and web designers, as you'd expect. For example:

30 Artistic and Creative Résumés

But having spotted the word "visualization" somewhere or else, I wondered whether visual resumes had made it though to programming jobs. With assorted visual tools about, I guessed it must have. And found one easily enough, by googlng for "visual reume c++".

So is it time to switch from Word to Visio for my resumes?

Well, the volleyball part might illustrate the tranferable skill of agility?
