Interesting Alternative to a Resume

I found a very interesting link to Seth Godin. I don't know much about him but he advocates that one doesn't need to write a resume / CV and offers interesting alternatives.

To quote him:

If you don't have a resume, what do you have?

How about three extraordinary letters of recommendation from people the employer knows or respects?
Or a sophisticated project they can see or touch?
Or a reputation that precedes you?
Or a blog that is so compelling and insightful that they have no choice but to follow up


Hope you enjoy looking at his blog. I found his ideas very fascinating.

This blog is about a personal history but also about a professional life. It is about an English professor but also about a professional translator. It is in fact about a life well-lived and how to live a life pretty well.
