Infographic Resumes Part 1
This is my first blog post about these very creative infographic resumes, part 1. There are many hot infographics on the web. However, I'm more focused on the resume infographic and I tend to use the term visual resume more so than infographic resume, if nothing else, I think it makes for a smoother read and in general an infographic can be anything represented in visual form as far as I'm concerned. These infographic resumes do look very appealing and eye catching. Hot or not, and as creative as some of them are that I've seen, good content is certainly a driving factor in whether or not a potential employer dials your 7 digits.
Below is a sample of my first go at a MS paint version of my paper resume (I just copied it from Word and Pasted it to Paint) The paper resume itself was more a brainstorming activity I did just to get some concrete facts down. I'm not sure how this image will look when I publish this, in preview mode it can not be read and the hyperlink doesn't respond, but it tests well, so we'll see. I'll endeavour to make it readable somehow in Part 2, as my expertise is not in graphic web design. But it seems, to stand out from my crowd, I need to be more than I am today, to get to where I need to be tomorrow.

But it seems, to stand out from my crowd, I need to be more than I am today, to get to where I need to be tomorrow.
You can see the image above is kind of busy and there is some useless information on there to.
I initially started out with a 3 page resume, but my research and experience has shown me that the most important part of the resume are the first few lines. If an employer doesn't like what they are seeing right off the bat, what are the chances they will read through two more pages? So, even though I have quite a bit of experience, I've tailored this next resume for a specific position and limited my facts to only that. I also tossed out "summary" and "qualifications" and other overly used buzz words from years past. Attempting to make it more web friendly and using words and terminology we now associate with the experiences of people, places and things on the various social media sites.
All things considered, both these resumes are pretty visually lame when compared to the hot new infographics. If you notice on the right side of this blog there is a infograph of my resume using my LinkedIN profile information that was imported to this website I used to create it. It's called visual.ly. One of several online visual resume creators.
Towards the bottom left of this blog post is another online visual resume creator called vizualize.me and if everything works out, clicking on the button should direct you to my visual resume on their site. OK, that's going to wrap up part 1. Part 2 I will cover a few more online visual resume creators and attempt to improve my blogs visual appeal and various other functionality. I'm very excited about getting my Infographic Resume in order, all things said, I think a well put together Infographic Resume is pretty LEAN.

Navigating the Federal Job Application
.....Applying to most jobs requires you to shoot out a resume and cover letter to a specified address, with some prep time added to tailor the materials to the position. But to join the hundreds of thousands of people vying for a job with the federal government, the process gets a bit more complicated.
