What are your thoughts about adding a hyperlink to your work profile on your resume? I figure it can be helpful to put a face with a resume. Especially if you’re really really ridiculously good looking (Derek Zoolander humor) 
No, kidding aside, I think it could be valuable for several reasons. Thoughts?
No. I doubt they look at it and it wont be clickable as submitted to my knowledge. Unless they ask for your webpage (facebook anyone?), I would keep it traditional.
no
This would show pretty poor judgment.
Absolutely not. Completely idiotic.
Not a hyperlink but maybe the URL for an organization you worked with/volunteered for. That’s still kind of a risk though because it’s going against the tradition.
Obviously “no” is the wrong answer. It would really depend on where you are talking about.
Non-legal job: Not sure why you would be asking here, but it would probably depend on the type of job and the field.
Law School: Doesn’t matter. Knock yourself out. In fact, aside from a few schools like Northwestern, it might actually help. Or hurt. Maybe for a reach? Though there are traditional schools (Re: Northwestern) that might dislike what you’ve done.
Firm Job: Advice seems to generally be that law firms are traditional institutions and going a traditional route is never going to hurt you. Not adhering to tradition is going to hurt you much more often, and much more severely, than it will help.
So…no?
By adhering to tradition, do you mean bullet points and times new roman? Tradition is so boring.
You’re going to hate law school.
A rebellious, cutesy disregard for formal rules is also a quick way to fail things like LRW and get no-offered.
Related tip: make your personal statement a poem and do it in comic sans.
Not for a picture, no. And don’t put one in the top corner of the thing either. Tacky.
Haha… no, no. Not going to be that drastic
Haha. Okay. You never know on these forums. Resumes are tricky because you don’t want to do anything too out there for this industry. I have, however, for past legal jobs, put a footer statement that “references, writing samples and Internet articles” were available. Only one place ever took me up on it, but I kept links to college newspapers outlining some really crazy fundraising (that mentioned me by name) and provided them if anyone asked. I don’t think I’d do it for a law school app, though.
And the legal field too for that matter.
No
(Are you in some sort of contest to ask the dumbest question on an internet forum?)
so after all of that, you basically said “no” is the wrong answer and “no?” is the right answer…
Sure, I don’t see why not? In fact, what you really should do is put your entire application is a video-essay form and upload it to youtube then just link them that. It will show adcomms that you are a creative individual and adds a personal touch to your application. I heard a few years back some girl got into Harvard by doing this. Good luck!
Georgetown has a section on their application where you can record a one minute video and provide the youtbe link. No joke.
You’re getting it all mixed up. “no.” is the wrong answer. “no?” is the correct answer. I’m surprised the nuance is lost on you
