Sharing Your Resume at an Event

Three ways that work, and how to pick one in the moment.

The quickest way is a QR code on your phone that the other person scans. If they'd rather have something in writing, text them your resume link and follow up by email later.

Small things that make it smooth

  • Have the QR photo ready before you start talking.
  • Say their name back to you once so you remember it for the follow-up.
  • Ask what would be most useful to them instead of guessing.
  • Keep the follow-up message to three sentences.
