I think it's bob'on!
Hard copy CVs!... come on guys!...do you not think he does that aswell!!!
This is an excellent way to show determination and most of all creativity. It flashes down his history right down to popping MS credentials... If I saw that linked from a job advert then I'd be impressed and at least give an interview, which is what it's all about...once you have an interview you've been cut down from 100s if not 1000s to <30.
I'd rather see something like that than
just a plain old CV. However, I'd also like to see a list and project portfolio, but if he's done something like that..that list will be endless.
By the sounds of his bg he's not going for a junior role where 1 page hard copy CVs are important! I'd guess he'd be looking for senior development roles in blue [white and red] chip companies...
