Re: Digital CFO ==> ?
I would only humbly suggest this:  the need to be adaptable and flexible is at the heart of it which is an implicit message of what you've noted--especially in this era where an estimated 800 Million People are slated to be "out of a job"....

Re: Digital CFO ==> ?
@mpouraryan. For his private school admittance, I had to write an essay explaining my goals for my 5 year-old sons’s education. Those two things are basically what I said at the end to sum it up. I was him to learn how to be adaptable and flexible in an ever-changing and uncertain world.

@Joe The hiring portals are awful. Terrible to use as an applicant and just as bad as a hiring authority. Classic enterprise software?? Gaming the platform just to get a second look is brutal. You could resort to classic networking to be seen. Networking isn't always a possibility when you consider moving to a new state, for example.

@V That's all true! A full analysis of a job is rarely done. Who has the time?

Re: Digital CFO ==> ?
@Ariella I second that! I am stunned when people believe otherwise. You work very hard to learn what you need to do a good job. It would be fantastic if everyone were willing and able to do the same.

Re: Digital CFO ==> ?
@Michelle: The digital age has elevated networking beyond traditional physical networking. There are people I've never or have only barely met IRL who I am more willing to help -- and are more willing to help me -- than people I've known for twice or three times as long, IRL.

Re: Digital CFO ==> ?
@vnewman: You're a living, breathing example of the notion that your intelligence and adaptability are more important than your degrees. Maybe you can spread the word among your fellow industrial/org'l psych. MAs who took the more traditional HR path that their traditional thinking -- that you have to be a 100% fit on paper -- is dead wrong. ;)

@Joe - I always thought of myself as an ambassador of sorts. I will tell anyone and everyone who will listen. I also think the resume process needs a revamp. I prefer an infographic type myself. Anyone else ever use these?

Re: Digital CFO ==> ?
@Joe I feel the same way about people I work with online. I also don't know many local folks in my field. I suspect there are few, but I still don't know them well or have never met them.

Re: Digital CFO ==> ?
@vnewman: Infographic resumes can be cool, but they're not always suitable, and they can be difficult to make (let alone make engaging). At least traditional resumes offer some semblance of standardization.

But, lo, here again is another example of hiring portals failing applicants -- because if you put your dates of employment in "the wrong place" (but in a perfectly fine, standard, traditional place) for each job listing, most hiring software will read it improperly and completely discount the experience/accomplishments that follow.

Either way, we have an automation problem.
