In its purest sense, a resume holds the promise of being the end product of a carefully rendered examination of a candidate’s career, with the focus upon his/her potential to provide solutions to specific challeges and/or to catalyze growth and change.

Effective candidates, however, have moved beyond a resume-centric campaign. As you and our colleagues at Career Hub have mentioned numerous times, candidates are seeking out those who can create a portfolio of marketing materials to convey the richness of the depth and breadth that the candidate’s personal brand portrays.

LinkedIn is an absolute must for serious careerists to be found now by those seeking Talent.

Enterprising individuals will fashion new and exciting “tools” that push the limits of technology to further their candidacy.

Hopefully, they’ll read your blog and choose to contribute their ideas here.

Keep moving the mindshare forward.
