This is awesome! As many others are sharing feedback, I thought I’d might add some myself: I would like to have better support for changing roles internally within the same company (ie promotions etc) and in this regard having the month available at least as an option would be great. LinkedIn uses the company as a higher level grouping, then the years/months spent in a certain position. For me to use this regularly I…
I started read.cv when transitioning from full time to freelance design in July. I wanted an easy to update 'about me' page to link from my website and bio – something simpler than LinkedIn and more dynamic than a PDF. Design wise I focused on legibility and tried to give projects/side projects equal weight to things like education and work experience. A few unique features: tagging collaborators in your experiences,…
I just wanted to share a couple of "views" that I created to express my career in a different way. I'm sharing just for your inspiration. (content in Portuguese, but I bet you can auto translate it)
Experience view; years of experience per theme/subject. https://rodolphoarruda.pro.br/experiencia/
Projects & cultural context in chronological order (notice the flags) https://rodolphoarruda.pro.br/eu/lista-de-projetos/
I decided to make those views available because I stopped believing the standard CV/LinkedIn format for presenting myself and my career.
Cheers and keep up the great work!
signed up immediately. looks beautiful. i LOVE that you have dark mode right out of the gate. what are your plans for this? is this a fun side project or a proto-startup?

As for Quip I left in July but I'll be sure to pass the feedback on!
This is visually very attractive. Have you considered supporting uploading structured resume formats like FRESH? Edit: also I want to emphasize the fact that this looks great on mobile , which isn’t something I always expect in this space. That said I’d consider bumping up the text size a bit (or allowing users to do so for their own profile).
I haven't heard of FRESH before, but I'll certainly look into it. Filling out a CV is a chore and anything I can do to make it easier for people would be great.
I don't have much to add in addition to everyone else except this: I am really disturbed by the common meme of faces-inside-circles. Why do we need faces? It just distracts from the content. I love the idea of being able to link former colleagues together - that's neat - but I'm very anti-face and there are any number of ways to do it that does not involve people's pictures.
Edit: Wow this got a lot of upvotes. So, I'll continue for a sec: There is so, so much conscious and unconscious judgment and game playing with pictures, I don't even know where to start. Let's leave this to be simple, clean and beautiful without the faces.
