I was a recruitment consultant in the IT world, it's a shrinking industry nowadays with most companies hiring in-house 'talent acquisition' teams that do the same thing but represent the company directly.

Anyway, as I was completing the company Bio's today for our About Us page I was reminded of the one page CV I always insist that people should have, especially nowadays.  Attention spans are short, recruiters will decide on whether your CV is worth considering within 6 seconds of looking at it.

Our Bio's aren't quite CV's (or Resumes) but they aren't far off, and they represent data visually much quicker than a boring list of useless skills or I am statements.  Still I'm not in that industry anymore but I had fun doing these.
