Career Management Document and Job Boards

Submitted by David Coe
in

I started listening to te Manager Tools/Career Tools podcasts about a month ago and I truly enjoy their discussions and advice and I think the career management document (CMD) is a great idea.

My career is primarily in IT spanning Telecommunications and DoD industries but I have pursued other interests alongside my career in volunteer work and side businesses that I believe have strong transferable skills.

I am in the middle of updating my CMD and I want to update my LinkedIn and job board profiles/resumes with content from my CMD, since I am not tailoring the information for a specific job posting, how much of my CMD should be posted on my online profiles?

 

Thank you.

Hello David,
There are several casts addressing LinkedIn, too many to list.  Click this search to get a selection. 
  Good luck!

Michael, thanks for the feedback. I have listened to several but did not hear a more specific answer to my question yet. I can derive an answer from the podcasts an other sources but a confirmation is nice to hear.
 
Since I have submitted this post, I have completed my DISC profile. After reading the 15 common profiles, it looked like I would be an Investigator and my test score 6156 (high DC) proved it. I only disagree with report's intensity levels for "i" at levels 1 through 5, I think I fit more with 9 through 13. It doesn't change the score or my tendencies. Anyway, I was wondering if your DISC profile affects how to present information on your resume, what are the pitfalls to look for and how to overcome them?
 
Thanks.
