Joey Flores dropped out of school at 16. His CEO found out by accident, because nobody had ever read his CV.

He now runs marketing at a company doing tens of millions.

His point: the CV is dying. Applicant-tracking software filtered him out for years for having no degree, screened out before a human saw his name. So he stopped applying and started building things people could see. Now he hires the same way, the person who shipped something beats the person with the tidy résumé every time.
