The Un-Resume: How to Translate Your Most Obscure Hobbies into High-Value Professional Skills


Overview

Stop Hiding Your Best Skills. Start Getting Paid for Them. Do you lead a double life? By day, you're a dutiful employee, checking boxes and sitting in meetings. But by night, you're a guild leader managing 40 people in a high-stakes raid, a master baker calculating hydration percentages for the perfect sourdough, or a maker sourcing obscure components for a 3D-printed prototype. For years, you've been told these are just ""hobbies""-distractions that have no place on a professional resume. You've been told to hide your weirdness to fit the corporate mold. You've been lied to. In The Un-Resume, Daniel Trudeau dismantles the myth that unpaid work is unskilled work. He reveals a groundbreaking truth: the obsessively detailed, complex, and demanding activities you do for fun are actually incubators for high-level executive function. You don't lack the skills to pivot to a better career; you just lack the vocabulary to sell them. This book is your translator. Inside, you will learn the Translation Matrix, a proven framework to convert your ""geeky"" passions into high-value corporate competencies. You'll discover: How to reframe Dungeons & Dragons as Agile Project Management. Why Cosplay proves you have elite Supply Chain & Budgeting skills. How Vintage Collecting demonstrates Data Taxonomy & Fraud Detection. The secret to rewriting your resume to bypass the ""soft skills"" trap and prove your durability. Whether you are a mid-career professional feeling stagnant, a ""pivoter"" looking to change industries, or a new graduate with more raid experience than work experience, this book will teach you how to stop apologizing for who you are and start leveraging your obsession as your competitive edge. The future belongs to the obsessives. It's time to put your real self on the payroll.
