(unsolicited) Feedback: Why are there other people on my CV? Who are they to begin with? And when a recruiter is looking at my CV, I don't want them clicking on other people.
The idea is that you're able to (optionally) tag coworkers and collaborators in your work experience and projects. Although this doesn't track 1:1 with the traditional CV use case, it felt like a great way to celebrate the people you work with and create lightweight endorsements.
If you choose to print or save your profile as a PDF these tags are hidden automatically, making it much more of a traditional CV, appropriate for job applications etc.
Just riffing off some ideas for the 'coworkers and collaborators' section as well since I agree that I wouldn't find it useful as a sometimes-recruiter in its current state.
I think the section could do with some more structure or information given. E.g. instead of just loose association with other folks who work at the same company, break associations into 'reports to', 'close teammates', 'manages' (or make that information visible on hover or something). There's probably a pretty cool hierarchical way to show this information but maybe people would find that too invasive. As someone who conducts interviews pretty often, understanding a person's team structure would definitely be useful, and would still serve the 'social proof' function you've described.
The collaborator's title while they were involved with that specific project might also make it easier to parse what the working relationship was between the CV owner and the collaborator as well.
I actually really like the concept of naming collaborators. Most great work is done in teams. Either through sparring or checking. The individualistic view on cvs does injustice to the complex dynamics of teams and performers.
I think we'll have to do this on our own and not rely on Hollywood or studios from the west. Bahubali was probably a good start. But more needs to be done. I'm starting to wonder whether it's a question of talent or question of capital. I seriously hope it's the latter.
People aren't coming here for learning (not the first priority), rather a college education is the gateway to a high paying job in the US and it's lifestyle.
