The MacArthur Foundation Wants To Foursquare Your Résumé With Digital Badges Designed By Mozilla
Genius-grant giver the MacArthur Foundation and Mozilla recently teamed up with education network HASTAC (Humanities, Arts, Science, and Technology Advanced Collaboratory) to create a digital badge system in which folks earn titles such as “JavaScript expert” to supplement their resumes. But c’mon, MacArthur–that’s not what employers really want to know. We propose a few new ones.
On the Cheap
My last job paid so little, I’m now available at a discount.
Control Freak
Let the team relax; I’ll do it all.
Friend-Free
Social life? No, thanks. I sleep at the office.
Superior Yes Man
Obedient to a fault.
Enforcer
Pressuring coworkers so you don’t have to.
Office-Politics Manipulator
Using gossip to my advantage.
Sustenance Provider
Baking cupcakes on a weekly basis.
Penny-Pincher
Utilizing the unpaid interns until they bleed.
