Invested, innovative, brilliant: Improving the recruiting experience

Great recruitment brands start with great candidate experiences

Visual CV follow this blog post

Designer and illustrator Michael Anderson has posted a resume that provides key information about his job experience, education, primary skill sets, and areas of productivity -- all in graphic form.

Yes, we've seen a few of these before, but this one actually stood out as being a great example of his design skills.  And the best part? While it certainly can't (or at least doesn't) replace or recreate the detail level of a properly written resume, this "infographic" CV is not only visually appealing but also clearly conveys the intended information. (I laughed when I saw the 2 AM drop in productivity coupled with the sharp spike in humor. It sounded all too familiar!)

Sure, it's hard to upload into an ATS and can't replace a properly written resume, but a "visual CV" is still a fun attention-grabber. It's good to see he's followed it up with a Word resume and a portfolio blog on his website.
