Resumes have looked the same for forty years — a one-page summary, optimized for skim-reading, frozen in time the moment you upload it. They were built for a different era of hiring: fewer applicants, more in-person interviews, recruiters who had time to read each CV end-to-end.
That world is gone. Modern recruiting workflows are high-volume, async, and signal-starved. A senior recruiter at a fast-growing company might see 500 resumes for a single role. The 30-second skim is real, and the resume is what gets skimmed.
The fundamental problem isn't formatting or design — it's that resumes are one-way. Recruiters have follow-up questions; resumes can't answer them. Candidates have context that doesn't fit on a page; resumes can't carry it. The interactive resume is the missing layer between the cold PDF and the scheduled call.
