In a comment posted to the article referenced in my previous entry, a poster wrote:
Resumes fail to show passion or adaptability in two pages. They also fail to show how a candidate may perceive dozens of different complex topics. To say I have ten years in project management would be fairly simple, but to point a potential employer to some of my writing over the past few years would be ten times more enlightening for both of us. Hopefully if they are truly interested – they will strike up a commentary with me and discuss my thoughts and talent regarding subjects that I find interesting.
Yes! Resumes DO fail to show passion and adaptability. That’s why they need to include story.
