Here's a recap of upcoming speakers, with the correct dates:

Mackin (USNA '68) will give an informal report (with photos) on his recent trip to the Northeast, which included attendance at the christening of the USS Illinois.

3 Nov: Dave Jackson (USMA '73) will give a book review of ʺThe Monk Who Sold His Ferrari: A Fable About Fulfilling Your Dreams and Reaching Your Destinyʺ by motivational speaker and author Robin Sharma.

How to Create an Infographic Resume That Will Land You a Job
This article is a partial posting from blog/visme/co.
How to Create an Infographic Resume That Will Land You a Job
6 seconds.
This is the average amount of time that a hiring manager will spend reviewing your resume before they go on to the next candidate.
According to a study conducted by TheLadders, 80 percent of the job recruiter’s time will be spent on just six key elements in your resume:
- Your name
- The company you currently work for
- Your previous employment
- The start and end dates of your previous jobs
- The start and end dates of your most recent job
- Your educational background
While this may be disheartening news for those who have spent hours or even days creating a top-notch resume, the reality is that competition is fierce and it’s only becoming tougher to get noticed nowadays.
To avoid the fate of other unimpressive resumes that get thrown in the “no” pile, many job candidates have resorted to turning their text-based Word resumes into visually captivating infographics.
As with traditional resumes, however, you have to know the do’s and don’ts before you set out to create your own. After all, attempting to get noticed can do more harm than good if you don’t know what works in each industry.
