Do You Have a Proper Web Resume?
What is a resume? It is a document that briefly mentions your qualities, qualifications, work-experience and skill sets, and highlights those that demonstrate your suitability for the position of an employee or other service provider.

However, with the evolution of technology, formats, as well as media for presenting a resume has changed, and ultimately a resume has come to mean a digital or physical presentation that highlights your abilities and suitability as an employee or service provider. For example, many candidates create entire websites around their resumes with each web page focusing on different segments of the presentation, including pages of testimonials and contact page. Properly optimizing these sites attract targeted visitors and often generate queries, in addition to the obvious utility of providing a referable web address.

Notable additions or substitutes to the paper resume or document format resume are video resumes and online web resumes. While document format resumes, whether on paper or digitally submitted, follow three principal tracks - the functional resume, the chronological resume, and the mixed or combined resume, online web resumes and video resumes are comparatively newer creations and are yet to establish any set format. However, all resume types are helpful for any candidate to be aware about and usually we find more and more candidates going for multiple resume options, where submitted resumes are in document format and referred resumes remain online either in video format or in the form of a full web portfolio.

Resumes are now submitted through four types of media: paper, digital files, internet pages, and videos. Resumes prepared in the form of a traditional document can be either on paper or on digital files like MS Word. It is also common to find document format resumes in online web pages. New media resumes include video resumes and internet pages or full websites. New electronic media offers unique opportunities to highlight one's abilities and accomplishments with flair without crossing the boundaries of caution. Online media provides wide latitude of graphical representation that is otherwise missing from traditional resumes, and especially from document format attorney resumes. The charm of online resumes and especially those where an entire website is built around the resume is that what would usually go under a heading in a document resume is presented in a single webpage. Since clicking through webpages is effortless, such a style of presentation does not create any difficulties. A website being more visually engaging and easily more navigable than a document resume, a properly created web resume impresses people more and displays more information in a focused manner. When focused information is presented through the system of single web pages dealing with single headings of a resume, the reader's attention is grabbed more easily and more information conveyed than through traditional resumes.

Where in an ordinary website one would have pages with headings like Home, About Us, Products, Services etc., a dedicated site for your resume would have headings like Vision, Mission, Accomplishments, Work, Interests, Testimonials, Contact Me etc. In case of attorney resumes, web, or video resumes are still not mainstream, and are principally helpful as referred material or links.
