|
|
I thought I would draw CVTips Forum members to 2 online CV / Career Profile pages I have put together over the last few months. The internet offers a number of advantages to those with a little HTML experience in being able to adjoin photos and example work to their CVs.
I had the idea a few months ago to scan all of my professional IT certificates and place them under links from the 'professional training' aspect of my CV. I also realised that Microsoft products allow you to save work in HTML format allowing you once again to adjoin work carried out to a link on your online CV.
ADMIN EDIT
I have placed all of my 'O', 'A' and Professional Certificates on my website so that I will never find it difficult to instantly bring up and prove my qualifications. Having on online Career Profile which goes back 21 years (currently) helps to verify work done. |

Another option which I have been using for the last 12 months or so is LinkedIn. This is a business networking site (as opposed to social networking) which allows you to enter a summary resume/CV and also allow you to connect with past business colleagues etc. to further validate your career progression. You can also publish your resume with a unique URL (see below) making it a very powerful tool as this published profile is indexed and cached by Google and aother search engines.
Past and present colleagues can also place a recommendation (reference) next to your profile for all to see. You are also allowed upto 3 internet links on your page to link to any other site on the internet. As an example, goto my LinkedIn profile below.
