Your Resume is So 1.0

Posted by Jason Averbook Apr 22, 2008

 

 

Knowledge Infusion is involved in over 20 different evaluations of Talent Acquisition/Recruiting solutions as we speak. Part of these evaluations include working with organizations to understand their existing processes and what they see as the "future of recruiting" in their worlds.

 

 

Recently, while working with a client on one of these projects, they introduced me to the "Visual CV". According to the VP of Talent Management, they have seen a "400% increase in these types of resumes and documents (do we still call it that?) in the past 6 months. Another interesting statement from that person was:

 

 

"Our new generation of manager prefers this type of profile of the future worker over the typical resume. It gives them a snapshot of the true person and a better idea of their true capabilities and past accomplishments."

 

 

Is this the ONLY resume of the future? Will resumes be a thing of the past in the past 5 years and everyone will have a "online profile" like Facebook or LinkedIn? What are your thoughts?

 

 

The "talent profile" is not only an internal tool, but something we carry with us everyday of our lives.

Recruiting Ain't Easy

Posted by Jason Averbook Jan 23, 2008

 

 

 

The number of organizations that Knowledge Infusion is working with early this year around the transforming space of Talent Acquisition is amazing. This is as a result of many things such as:

 

  • Failed deployments of existing technologies

  • Downward economy making organizations think more about how to hire

  • Quality of hire and quality of data about hire continues to be in question
