    Why bother having resumes when one can use LinkedIn, twitter, and be active on the web at sites like this? Does activity on social media translate to honesty? Paper resumes always had a reputation for fluff and inexact descriptions of experience. Is it the same on social media?

    A resume doesn't have to be a paper resume these days. LinkedIn is fine. Just make sure you have it updated.

    I agree with that but can potential employers trust what is on LinkedIn any more than they could trust a paper resume in the olden days.
