Always thought that Resume stood for:

Repeatedly Endless Submissions Uncovering Mediocre Employees

As an employer and employee I've never been a fan of them.

Total TKO..excellent post Yoni

I agree Duncan. All cvs are now electronic. As far as blogs go I'll support the theory 70%. It still has a bit more headway until it reaches cv status, but it's getting there. In any case, exceptionally well-done article Yoni. As usual!

It's been years since paper resumes were even accepted - they have to be emailed or faxed now, a sure guarantee they'll all look alike (no fancy paper, etc). The days when you'd show up in your best suit to hand your work-of-art resume to the desk person are long gone!

Duncan,

I'm glad the days of handing in resumes is a thing of the past. I remember bussing around entire cities handing them in to HR depts. and mailing scores at a time. I think in any case the whole idea of the resume is changing. I'm told the average time an HR person spends scanning a resume is 30 seconds...how much better to send them a link to a blog.

Regards,

Yoni
