Procurement finds a project manager's PDF resume on a personal site listing City of X — 2019. How should the analyst use it?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
A posted resume is the candidate's own brochure. Read the City of X 2019 line as a timeline clue, then see if a public directory from that year agrees. Do not confuse a PDF with an HR-certified personnel file.
Full Explanation
Public resumes are standard people-OSINT artifacts for vendor due diligence: they offer claimed titles, dates, and civic employers. Claims still require verification against independent public sources such as archived staff directories, meeting minutes, or project pages from the stated year. Pretexting as HR or treating the resume as certified personnel data exceeds PORP methods. Record the resume URL, capture date, and which lines were corroborated.
