Went back to paper resumes after watching my coworker's digital portfolio crash mid-interview
Last month I was helping a young guy prep for a supervisor position at the hardware store. He spent three days building this fancy digital portfolio on his tablet with videos and links and such. Day of the interview, the tablet froze up, wifi in the conference room was spotty, and he spent the first five minutes fumbling with it. The managers just sat there waiting. Meanwhile, I had my old two page resume printed on thick paper. No fuss. He didn't get the job. Makes me wonder if all this tech is really helping or just adding another thing that can go wrong. Anybody else see candidates shoot themselves in the foot with too much gadgetry?
