Your digital footprint says a lot about you. For years now, people have been on social media leaving behind data that they may have forgotten. your digital footprint is unique to you, like your digital dna.

A CV/resume may no longer be needed. Firms sometimes ask candidates to send in their LinkedIn profiles instead of a resume. As the recruitment process transforms from being a sourcing game to more of an engagement business, a number of startups are doing away with the resume culture.

At these firms, a candidate’s digital footprint is the first port of call for a recruiter. Talent acquisition/HR firms see an increase in the move away from CVs.
