The 'SB'
Resumes and CVs are sort of silly, aren't they?
Everyone Googles the same thing to find out how to write them, format them, etc. So they end up all looking the same, and not really saying anything of interest.
Hence, I propose the SB. (Should Be.)
I picture an Excel spreadsheet with the following headings:
WHAT I DID
WHAT I LEARNED
HOW IT APPLIES
HOW IT DOESN'T APPLY
Let me provide an example. Suppose a real estate agent applies to a human resources position.
WHAT I DID: Negotiated real estate deals. Worked with many different people.
WHAT I LEARNED: Communication, collaboration, and how to see the goals of others.
HOW IT APPLIES: I worked with many types of people and forged compromise between them.
HOW IT DOESN'T APPLY: I will need to learn the specific HR policies and procedures.
Isn't this what all resumes and CVs try to convey, anyways? Why not just get straight to it. It would save everyone time, and let folks get back to work.
Just a thought.
