How did help him with that? Read on to find outHi Joshua, can you tell us a bit about yourself?Im a fairly young professional but have had an exciting journey up to this point. Ive been extremely fortunate to successfully challenge the value of education vs. true application. i.e. Graduating HS at 16 in Virginia, went straight to college in Minnesota but decided to go apply my knowledge as an Intelligence Analyst in the U.S. Air Force. After serving I took my passion for technology and web development to a startup in the Pacific Northwest where I was a top-performing Solutions (Sales) Engineer at 21. It was there I was able to found and begin development of my startup Wistly - an SMS, AI-based personal assistant to build healthy habits. Were in the process of applying to incubator programs and seeking Seed funding.After a pretty adventurous start to life, my wife and I decided we wanted to plant our roots closer to the family deciding to build a house out here near Jacksonville, Florida with high hopes we could find career continuation to support it.In Florida, I secured my new position within 45 days thanks to my awesome resume with . Im now an Account Manager at an innovative startup called OpenNest which works on really large initiatives and projects to build strategic growth with a 10x mindset. Were working with brands like Summit Powder Mountain.What was the reason you created your resume?I needed it for new job applications. My old one was in Word and slightly design-focused. I wanted to revamp and spruce it up.What do you like about ? Did you learn anything from it?s UI is ridiculously easy and flexible. Its the only tool online that gives a millennial-worthy resume without the cheap, non-applicable templates. The balance between style, content, and function is just stunning. Ive been on many hiring committees and an resume will always catch my eye. Its clean and minimal.I learned that changing the visuals (i.e. the skills section on my resume) creates a really clean effect that nicely breaks up the text flow. I also enjoyed the Projects section. Its a really nice way for a startup entrepreneur, like myself, to disclose my ownership interest in a professional, non-confrontational way.What message would you send to other job seekers out there?I think my advice would be best geared towards young professionals. As education studienplan gets pushed further further down the ranks, a graduates degree becomes increasingly more popular, and decreasingly valua ble. Due to this, many employers (especially those in the startup world) are becoming hyper-focused on the application, the ability to grind, and culture fit.10 years ago having education on your resume was how you opened the door. Today, its merely an afterthought. Many of the committees Ive sat on never considered it at all (theres clearly an exception to everything- hard to be a scientist without a degree).Related articlesFollow-up emails that will get you hiredWhat I learned from creating Donald Trumps resumeQuestions to ask your future manager before joining the teamLong story short, find different ways to stand out and truly be an expert in your field. will get you the call, its your job to blow them away with your story.I would like to thank Joshua for sharing his experience with us.
