My Interactive Tableau Resume

Hello all!

First things first: I felt a need to change my site after a couple of years with the same face. I had a lot of fun doing it! I think right now it represents me better than before. If you haven’t yet explored this new version, how about you go for a little visit?

Creating my resume with Tableau

After working with Tableau for over 2 years, I decided it was time to give in and spend more time with it. I think it is a data tool where we can also be creative, and that is something I’ve been craving lately.

If you want to check my resume, you can view it here on my Tableau Public profile.

Behind the Scenes

For ideas and a few how-to’s, I used the following videos:

This channel was great for the dual axis skills charts and the Gantt chart timeline that had overlapping each other.

This one gave me great tips on a overall level, from structuring my data, to how to set up the layout.

Then, I visited the Tableau Public Interactive Resume Gallery for some inspiration. There are some awesome resumes out there!

Something that is always complex at work is that most of the data is not as static for someone to create a viz that involves a nice design behind it. Real life corporates demand something effective, which sometimes translates into… kinda boring and ugly. Which is why I was happy to work on my own resume. After all, the data is my own history and I get to present it however I want to.

I hope this is the first of many Tableau Public creations of mine, I’m definitely pleased with what I was able to accomplish on this viz.

Thanks and see you soon! 🙂
