Title: DevOpsing Your Resume

Description:

Despite the infamous shortage of engineers in our field, job hunting is

rarely regarded as a pleasant experience. Even the most competent engineers often regard their resumes as minefields of technical debt.

In this quick tour of how to apply some DevOps best practices to your resume or CV, we’ll discuss:

  • Choosing the right tools for the job
  • The importance of version control
  • Organization and formatting to meet the users’ needs
  • Continuous delivery
  • Where & how to reuse content

Recognizing that your resume is just another piece of code can reduce the uncertainty of job hunting, free up time for the projects you care about, and help you strengthen your personal brand.
