Fw: Idioms & Idiots. ~by: Steve Buckley
Early today I stumbled upon, what I think is, a very useful post about job hunting for hackers written by Steve Buckley.
Being one to roam through several advice blogs on CV construction and interview preparation, I’ve found Buckley mentions some of the most sincere recommendations for the hiring process. Even though his article focuses on those fetching a career in coding and other computer expertise fields, I recommend this reading for everyone who is looking for a job in today’s competitive hunt.
However, if you are going to take my advice and invest your time to read his article… Please, please invest a bit more of your time to research at least some of the tools he mentions, understand why he talks about GitHub, LaTeX formatted CV’s, LinkedIn, etc. And think of a way this advice can be applied to your own field. Common sense is a very useful and quickly growing unused tool I’m sure you have access too.
