Using MindManager for your Résumé
As most of you know by now, I am going to Microsoft after 4 1/2 fantastic years at Mindjet. Over the past six months, I have been doing an intense self-evaluation and from that, I came to some conclusions about the themes that have persisted throughout my career. If you looked at my résumé as a linear document, you wouldn't see these themes: the standard hierarchy of resumes doesn't fit my career and strengths (Summary, Employment, Education, Skills). As an exercise, I decided to try using MindManager to craft a résumé that better reflects my path from Computer Enthusiast to Technology Evangelist. Take a look at what I came up with: Michael Scherotter's Résumé. Try doing that for yourself and then upload your resume map to the Mindjet Labs (show everyone what an amazing MindManager mapper you are) and enter it for this contest:

If you are interested, when you apply for a job at Mindjet, you must submit your résumé as a MindManager map as well as a Word .doc. Take a look at all of the great career opportunities at Mindjet today!
