Add a resume/CV timeline to profile page
Problem to solve
We'd like profiles in GitLab to be able to tell a story about a person. If I'm running a self-managed instance, I should be able to click on the profile of someone I've never met and get a very good sense of who they are and what they do.
In a similar fashion, I should be able to click on a GitLab.com contributor and get the highlights of their development career and what they're passionate about.
This is especially true for developers who have a significant amount of their work on GitLab.com; while we display their projects in a list, it doesn't tell a story.
Proposal
We should give users the ability to add a timeline to their profile, in a new tab.
As a user, I should be able to add different events (corresponding to important events in my personal or company career - new positions, new projects, important milestones in my life, etc) in a timeline viewable to others.
What does success look like, and how can we measure that?
TBD

We have shut down Stack Overflow Jobs and Developer Story as of April 1, 2022 Jobs have been a part of Stack Overflow in some form for almost 12 years and played a critical role in getting us to this stage as a company. The decision to sunset these products wasn’t a simple one and we understand that this may have an impact on your job search process. For more details, please see our post on meta..
