A personal blog is better than a resume
A few things I like about blogs:
- shows interest areas and initiative
- provides a true and somewhat verified (publicly shared) record of thoughts over time
- helps shape and improve thinking
- allow a person to get to know you on a deeper level and at their own pace
- and meander along pathways that are interesting to them
- a searching mechanism to meet other folks that have similar interests
A few things I don’t like about resumes:
- no pictures
- no narrative arc
- ends up as a bunch of word goop
