I find this a great idea of self-promotion, IF you are looking to get hired in a creative environment/job/company. It might even do the difference between you and someone who is not chosen for he job, due to the way in which you show you are open and willing to work.

But if you are applying for a job like a more down-to-earth straight-up programmer or a construction engineer, all those little charts, the QR, and everything shown in the article will dazzle the employer, but won't convince him you are the best choice for his company - he needs straight facts, not pretty colored "pies" with information about you.

All in all, it is best you use the format that best reflects your abilities and your work, but always keep in mind the employer's profile.
