Computer Hardware/Infrastructure Subindustry Too Broad?
First, I love the product. I hope you guys do very well. :)
I have a slight bone to pick with the Resume Genome Project. Under IT, the subindustry "Computer Hardware and Infrastructure" seems to lump a lot of only tangentially related careers/jobs together, so when I'm looking at the keywords and education, the information is of limited use.
In particular, it seems that this subindustry lumps jobs related to hardware/circuit/chip engineering and design along with systems engineering and administration. It doesn't do a systems engineer much good to see what chip designers do with their careers. :)
Do you guys have plans to further subdivide the industries and subindustries? Would systems engineering/administration more properly go under a different subindustry?

I’m curious.

Inappropriate?Dean, I agree. The industries need a rework, and what we're learning is that anytime we encounter someone in the middle of that industry, they'll look at it differently than we do.
We'll have to take a look at this again... its been a little while since I reworked them. -
Inappropriate?Just a thought. Though your product doesn't seem to concentrate on a social aspect (yet?), would some crowd-sourcing on which jobs belong in which industries make any sense?
-
Inappropriate?Well, in a sense, the more crowd data we have, the less categories actually matter.
Because if we know that you're just like people who do ibanking, and we show you that, what does it matter what we categorized ibanking in vs some other job?
With more social data from other people, more of your navigation will depend on people powered relevency and less on our contrived, arbitrary, static categorizations. -
