A few months ago, Wanda Catsman wanted to achieve her dream job as a manager or social media strategist. She first updated her LinkedIn profile and announced on Twitter that she was looking for work, but that didn’t really yield the desired results. So Wanda started a creative and innovative process – something different, to attract the attention of potential employers. She wanted to visualize her resume and ended up on Pinterest.
Visual CV on Pinterest
She started a profile on Pinterest, and created a resume board titled “ I’m looking for israel telegram data work. ” It became a mix of companies she’s worked at, recommendations from LinkedIn, links to her social media profiles, her Peerz, and a digital business card.
An important thing when using Pinterest was that she had to pin the pictures in the right order. The board shows the last pinned picture at the top left and the first at the bottom right. After coming up with a nice name for her board and writing a clear profile, she was almost ready to start promoting her Pinterest resume. She also made a few other boards to let her personality shine through.
