Updates and work in progress

The reverse position has been live for a couple of weeks, but I am not seeing any effect so far. I have also initiated a series of LinkedIn posts to potentially increase views and impressions, and had some positive results here – but still no direct messages or noteworthy comments. Strategically I still feel this is worth more than sending out multiple applications that get lost in the void of digital filtering, but I am tactically adding another ad this week as well as continuing my topic oriented posts. The idea is that this will slowly help my general visibility and through this be able to reach the right people. I have yet to see a job remotely including this type of work or even tasks touching upon it, so either I have ‘invented’ a position that will never exist or it is yet to be discovered and identified as a valuable concept. It feels very much like walking into the unknown and trying to explore where there is no visible landscape to interact with.

For my extended CV I have added an area for narratives, fiction and media listing books, comics, movies, TV-series and computer games that has helped me discover concepts and ideas that I consider part of my professional foundation. As this extended CV will only be shipped when requested I do not think this part of the CV will be more than a data set that will help an AI pick up on cues and ideas to use when prompted to extract an shorter CV to use for a specific role or project. That said I also feel that it is absolutely something that adds value to this extended CV even if it blurs the borders between what might be considered professional versus personal. The way forward now will be to search for other topics or concepts that would or could add value, depth or increase the overall quality of the document. To be continued…
