This was one of my students from France. He was going to an interview and I interrogated him beforehand at his request. We laid out the key characteristics the job description listed and then mapped his skills to the job characteristics. He, of course, sold himself short in a written resume, but after a couple of interrogations we had a good mapping of his skills. We did this for each different interview and job description, and with a number of different students in my class.

That's a very smart idea - the interviewer gets much more from the map than they would from a normal resume I'm sure! Have you seen some of Jamie Nast's maps on Biggerplate? She has several that are called "profile maps" which is her take on the mind map resume, may be of interest to you - search "Nast" and you should find them :-)

To me the interrogation process was more important than the actual map as you point out. I always had the students take two copies of the map to interviews, keep it in sight, and the interviewer ALWAYS asked what it was and then asked for a copy. That meant much more information to the interviewer than was found on the one page resume, and it made the interviewer remember something unique about the student-applicant.

Bill, this is a really good idea for a mind map, and a process that lends itself very nicely to expansive map-driven thinking. Potentially very useful in making the person feel more confident about what they are good at I imagine? Thanks for sharing your first map with us, I hope there are many more to come!
