Online portfolios / resumes?
(OP)
I've seen in the past where people had basically posted their resume, and portfolios on the internet. I searched some, but wondered if you have yours posted up, and if you wanted to post a link to it.
I'm looking for something relatively inexpensive, and easy to use. I'm not a web designer.
I had a phone interview today, and he asked me if I had my portfolio on the net where he could peruse it. I ended up emailing him a dozen attachments of machines and products I've designed.

I have yet to have a potential employer ask me to mail a paper copy in. They always ask me to email it. I think the days of the fancy resume paper and matching envelopes are in fact behind us. The web page would be a source for examples more than anything. Just like this guys asked. He'd seen my resume, and was interested in seeing some examples of my designs.
Good point, Greg as I do customize my resume to each job slightly.

Several online job search websites also allow you to post resumes though to look at them the potential employer needs to be a member or similar as I understand it.
I just got an email with potential job offer this weekend as a result of one of these (I'm not getting my hopes up though).
