It’s Not Only the Resume, It’s also the Un-resume | Jasmine LeFlore MSE, MBA | TEDxSanDiegoWomen

[@davidhanson8232]

I hope to see more leaders like Jasmine who understand the real struggles people face.

[@ClusterofHope]

her story is incredible - from being told she wasn't "University of Michigan material" to crushing it in aerospace engineering is really amazing!!

[@Iamcarlosdanger]

The part about building your own door if one doesn't open for you is 100% the motivation I needed today!

[@evanmosk]

This talk should be required viewing for every HR department and hiring manager out there. Time to rethink how we evaluate talent!

[@sudden-impact]

I really appreciate people like her who understand how important our experiences our! I think that helps us in real world settings way more than our formal learning

[@samiramohamed7284]

Wow, Jasmine! Amazing speech! You’re such a great leader and an inspiration to all women. So proud to know you!

[@rosecaspern]

I'm shook by how much she overcame... Three family deaths in three months while in engineering school? That takes some immense strength to push through

[@alannamyers]

I'm hopeful that this can be embraced and that it allows more of who the candidates are and the values they hold!

[@dpesca]

You can tell she's passionate about this, it makes me excited and hopeful but in my industry it's all about formal experience

[@tinabear09]

Jasmine congratulations on your talk! Thank you for shining a light on ways that we are more than a resume

[@miriamhilley]

Doing the UN resume would really help you stand out. Definitely doing it for my next application!

[@JannearyElvenSilpa]

Jasmine i such a great speaker! Kudos to the Great Work.

[@thecommercializer1124]

Go Jasmine!!!!!!!! This is such a great idea!!! The un-resume!

[@allisonwondersgars3715]

This is such an important talk and will impact so many people! You ROCK!!!

[@kcbfl4]

The REAL work is what builds the character. Thank you for sharing the journey with us!

[@kamilanotthevip]

This is the definition of grit and perseverance. Her un-resume is probably 10x more impressive than her actual resume!

[@yahshemiwalters7205]

Such an important topic that needs more attention. Great talk.

[@k.bllard6329]

You are an awesome inspiration young lady!👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

[@janellemillner8449]

I’m so proud of you Jasmine! This is absolutely amazing! 🖤💫

[@rozettaelder4988]

Great concept that should continue to be taked about! Amazing job, Jasmine!

[@AntorgeGroup]

Already watching it again. So good!

[@shirleyyager3274]

".....you might have to build your own door" -- sage advice! Thank you, Jasmine!

[@chelseap815]

Un-resume!! The experiences that aren’t talked about enough

[@sloppy0bf492]

Great talk and thank you for sharing!

[@elisa_michelle]

“A+ for moxie!” So good, Jasmine! The un-resume is definitely something that should be considered and talked about more often. Thank you for sharing your mind with us.

[@SilviaMah]

Jasmine is the BEST of the BEST leader who has lived by a un-resume career of perseverance, determination and grit. Well done!!!! So proud of her!!!!

[@dmilowrussell1385]

Congrats to my Childhood Sista She rock this TED-TALK!!!! Yes' Ma'am Aye Let's Go!!!

[@RyanShortill]

I have had the privilege of meeting and working with this luminous being!

[@MediaCrunch]

I like the part about "success isn't just about the result, it's the journey we take to get there." Wish there was more recognition for this in the workplace

[@allieohle]

This is one of those things that benefits EVERYONE. Applicants with fewer "recognized" accomplishments on their resume--but insanely valuable skills and gifts-- become seeable and recognizable for hiring managers. And over time organizations and institutions will learn that will, mindset, true intellect and emotional intelligence are hard to see if you limit the way you look for evidence.

[@DavidSpiewak]

So well said! The life factors that affect the person we are and become!

[@audreyjacobs1]

This talk must go viral! This talk must change the world and anyone who is applying for a job or anyone that is hiring someone! Brilliant!!!

[@DebraBass]

"Humanizing the hiring practice" what a great message in an age of A.I. screened resumes that can so easily dismiss resilient and creative candidates with the kind of grit and moxie that changes the world! Brava, Jasmine!

[@TanisshaHarrell]

You Go Jasmine. I appreciate humanizing the hiring practices that sees the whole person ❤. Your tenacity to bet on yourself is an inspiration for us all. Tee🎉

[@Circa35Vids]

So proud of you Jasmine! The Un-Resume needs to be a requirement in the hiring process. This is our path to humanizing our workforce. Congratulations on such a powerful TEDx!!

[@AndresDonosoOG]

Love the Billy Mays plug! This is great! Congrats 🔥

[@CrystalTooGeekd]

“My qualifications could not be quantified by a GPA” 👏🏽👏🏽 What an amazing talk and concept of the Un-Resume.

[@reetchelpresume7906]

Thank your for sharing your story so candidly and boldly! You remind us that our paths are hardly straight and narrow. Challenges and unexpected detours don't mean we're off-track either--it's what builds the "un-resume." I can't wait to see the the impact of this Ted Talk and your work for years to come!

[@_sovero]

So proud of you Jasmine!! 🩷 Thank you for sharing your journey. It’s absolutely needs to be heard!

[@dothethingformula]

I love how this ives an opportunity for everyone to go after any job they want, When they can take the skills they have and apply to whatever they want. Love this new word Un-resume !!! So good !!

[@TEDxCincinnati]

You are so authentic. Great talk for students and employers to watch!

[@jubekyb]

What an outstanding talk on the importance of the un-resume! Your journey to achieving the great success you have today is absolutely inspiring and remarkable! I'm so proud of you, all of your accomplishments, and your passion to give back to the community. Hiring managers, employers, students, job-seekers, etc. can learn from your grit and determination. It is imperative to know someone's story beyond what's on paper. Keep soaring, my friend!

[@shannonchan5427]

The Un-Resume should be a talking point during interviews. I’m going to start asking about it with our applicants. Important concept, and well described, Jasmine!

[@Msjanardp]

Great job, Jasmine! ❤

[@StartHere_YouBelongHere]

"Where was the line on my resume for unwavering resilience forged in the fire of adversity and grief?" This line!! What a powerful way to open this discussion on the Un-Resume. I love the Un-Resume and will advocate it as a standard in the workforce. You are amazing Jasmine!! Thank you for sharing your story with us.

[@GrowYourWealth]

Thank you for sharing your story! I love the idea of unresume. It is too bad many resumes gets tossed before the conversation. I will share this with my daughter who is going through the college process now. I tell her, tell your story -- she has battled medial issues her entire HS, but I have never seen someone more determined and resilient. Only someone who takes the time to read her story will see the full picture instead of just filter out her application due to her GPA.

[@teresaspencer7582]

So proud of you Jas. We love you back home ❤

[@brynleecarter]

The way she talks about "humanizing the hiring practice" is so important, especially with all these AI resume scanners now... We're more than just keywords!!

[@arabellakriedeman9304]

This is amazing! Go Jasmine!!!

[@tresshampton1124]

Honey, this brought tears my eyes 🥹 I felt EVERYTHING as you were speaking. So proud of you Jas 👏🏾 may God continue to give you His strength as you continue to move forward in boldness and obedience wherever He is taking you next 🙌🏾

[@SydneyHamil10]

INCREDIBLE! This is such an inspiring talk. Thank you so much for sharing your journey and perspective. As a hiring manager, it challenges how we think about our hiring processes. So insightful!

[@teresaridgway]

Aunt Darlene & Uncle Al Ridgway are very proud of you. We have and still do LOVE and accept you without or with credentials. You are helping inner cities and the poor by saying and DOING PROVERBS 31:8-9, PROVERBS 14:31, PROVERBS 14:21, PSALMS 82:3, PSALMS. When you get to heaven, l can just hear the Lord say to you, we'll done my faithful servant! LOVE you Jazzy❤

[@itsbydesign9531]

I am so very proud of you. I'm excited to watch in its entirety. You are my shero. 💐💐

[@fnpfnpfnpfnpfnpfnp]

So powerful!! 🔥

[@jamesmilton2495]

Very well done.

[@anniegathers]

Jasmine!!! ❤❤❤❤

[@samanthakobbah]

I feel so seen. What an incredible talk highlighting the resilient journey and unseen forces that Jasmine LeFlore and so many others from historically excluded communities face as they prepare for the workforce. We truly need a more holistic approach applied to hiring practices across industries. There’s so much value in the “un-resume”! Thank you for sharing your story, Jasmine. So inspiring!

[@justinnavalle4241]

Puttin in the work 💪🏽

[@melissavillagomez9296]

Way to Go!

[@jerusy3206]

Love!! 🎉

[@ViviSojorhn]

It occurs to me a certain Presidential Candidate is selling her unresume as much as her resume and it IS WORKING. Vote and Democracy Wins. Look for candidates' with unresumes to enrich our leadership with strength and courage.

[@nonamebrand5704]

Could be the key to a more diverse and encouraging workplace.

[@real_name_hidden577]

The way she talked about running the same race but with landmines in her lane made me choke up. That's so touqh.

[@NieshaMorrison0722]

“The un-résumé shows the hidden part of the equation, we often - never see!” Omg dear friend - speak the truth as you live through your absolute value! You just added tax to your resume with this!

[@IkeStanlon]

What kind of hiring manager is going to be blown away by someone's experiences and think "Don't know if they can do the job, but I love their journey - We should hire them"?

[@blanchebosdet]

Managers might actually read the whole thing if resumes were presented like this...

[@brandonharrison5050]

👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@rapid-transit]

I'm sure that most resumes never even get looked at. Maybe the first few lines get skimmed at best

[@gwendolyncarnell]

can we make the un-resume a real thing please? imagine how many amazing candidates we're missing out on bc of stvpid automated systems

[@TribeFearless]

I don't know if employers are equiped to process a nuanced resume.

[@katrienkarsen]

Honestly the whole process of resume related applications is outdated and most jobs come from your social network anyway

[@audreyjacobs1]

This talk must go viral! This talk must change the world and anyone who is applying for a job or anyone that is hiring someone! Brilliant!!!
