I'll Take One Resume Super-Sized Please!

Yes, can you believe it! People are really creating "Resumes on Video!", And how is this all possible you ask? Cisco is one of many that have been working on bringing you new ways to communicate over the Internet.



Just as social networking has taken off, so has Video Conferencing. First it was telephone, cable and internet, soon will be asking for Video too.



So this candidate: Scott Blake has an interesting resume don't you think? If I were a PGA officer or Program Manager, I would call him in for an interview. So I know you're asking, "DO I HAVE TO DO THIS", to get a job;and the answer is maybe not now, but it's a huge possibility for the future.



We can not afford to be unprepared for the Evolution of Communication. First it was the Fax, then the Email, the Superhighway, Web/Intranet/Extranet, get ready for Video.



Here is some additional information on how Cisco is participating in Video Solutions for now and future:
