    Hi Karla,

    I did something similar about 8 months ago and post it on Slideshare.
    http://www.slideshare.net/LaurentPerche/meet-laurent-presentation

    I believe the concept is great but there is a need for global visibility which is not achievable via slideshare as it is way too generic.

    Good luck

    Me too. I’ll keep you posted on my progress!
    It’s certainly opened up the door for several conversations. However, I don’t think anything comes close to replacing the importance of networking your network!

    Would be interested in knowing what the effectiveness of this style of presentation/CVs are for securing positions.
