Lucas explains the risks and rewards of this format, when to use it versus a hybrid resume, and how recruiters actually scan these documents. Luna shares data from a 2025 LinkedIn survey showing that 62 percent of hiring managers are open to non-linear career paths. They also touch on how to handle gaps and frame project-based work. By the end, listeners will know exactly how to structure a functional resume that tells a compelling story about their potential, not just their past. #CareerPivot #FunctionalResume #ResumeTips #CareerChange #JobSearch #TransferableSkills #ProductManagement #MarketingToPM #LinkedInSurvey #ATS #RecruiterTips #SkillsBased #NonLinearCareer #JobHunt #MidCareer #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #Careers Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
