Introducing my LinkedIn Resume Service: View Your Resume

September 24th, 2009

In my last post I mentioned that I was creating a couple web services that would hopefully bring together my online portfolio. Today I introduce my LinkedIn Resume Web Service.

How it works.

If you have a resume on LinkedIn and you’ve added services@adamdotcom.com as a contact then you can:

View your resume - retrieve your Resume by first and last name.

By first and last name URI:

http://adam.kahtava.com/services/resume/linkedin/{firstName-lastName}.{xml|json}

Example:

Request: http://adam.kahtava.com/services/resume/linkedin/adam-kahtava.xml

Response:

<Resume xmlns="http://adam.kahtava.com/services/resume" xmlns:i="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
  <Educations>
    <Education>
      <Certificate>Computer Programming and Analysis</Certificate>
      <Institute>Seneca College of Applied Arts and Technology</Institute>
    </Education>
    <Education>
      <Certificate>Bachelor of Science (Honours), Computer Science</Certificate>
      <Institute>Trent University</Institute>
    </Education>
  </Educations>
  <Positions>
    <Position>
      <Company>Corbis ...

Wow that was exciting, so now what?

OK, maybe not really exciting - like I mentioned in my previous post I’m in the process of creating a page / client to make this data look pretty and search engine friendly.
