Hydrolife Canada February/March 2017
It is amazing how an event from almost 20 years ago can remain fresh in the mind. It certainly doesn’t seem that long ago that Canadian Ross Rebagliati rocketed down Nagano’s Olympic giant slalom snowboard course, ripping through the finish line to claim the first-ever Olympic men’s snowboarding gold medal despite starting the final run in eighth position. Since then, Rebagliati has become a cultural phenomenon and advocate of marijuana
use, and it is no coincidence that since that foggy day on Mount Yakebitai near Nagano, how we perceive the use of marijuana in society has changed for the better. Hydrolife recently caught up with Rebagliati to talk about Nagano, his thoughts on marijuana, and the launch of Ross’ Gold.

grow cannabis resume example To effectively express how specific actions are used to solve problems in the workplace, descriptions of abilities on a resume should always begin with verbs. To illustrate, see the cannabis resume example above. Here, phrases like “Advanced a deep appreciation for sterilization in a greenhouse environment” and “Eradicated or avoided harmful pests, mildews, and moulds with organic sprays” help market a grower’s pest management competency. IMPORTANT SECTIONS TO INCLUDE There are three sections that should be included on all cannabis cultivators’ resumes. (The following examples are again drawn from the above cannabis resume example.) SKILLS AND CAPABILITIES The competency-based model markets a candidate’s cannabis cultivation knowledge as his or her primary asset. That’s why the ‘Skills and Capabilities’ section should be at the top of an artisanal, homebased cannabis grower’s resume instead of a traditional inverse employment history. Individual skill sets should then be described under subheadings like the following: Artisanal Greenhouse Management presents the various gardening competencies involved with atmospheric and operational control in a greenhouse. These skills should be further explained with descriptions like, “Developed expertise with industrial fans, inline fans, atmospheric controllers, cooling walls, heating devices, and dehumidifiers”. Cannabis Cultivation exhibits a cannabis grower’s specific familiarities with the actual cultivation process. The phrase “Gained intimate understanding of a variety of cannabis genetics and phenotypes, including NY Diesel, Gorilla Glue #4, Tahoe Kush, Blue Dream, Chem Dog, and Cherry Pie” depicts this competency nicely. Time Management and Planning illuminates the organizational competencies and foresight necessary for a bountiful cannabis harvest. For example, use descriptions like “Mastered the time schedule for the successful greenhouse flowering of cannabis year-round using blackout tarps and supplemental lighting”. EDUCATION/TRAINING The job market in the cannabis industry is competitive, so college degrees of any form will help candidates stand out in a prospect pool. Again, growers should look to their skill sets to decide what elements of their education are applicable in obtaining a specific position. For example, the phrase “Experienced in using Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and MS Office” shows that a candidate is fluent in modern computer technology, an asset necessary in almost any professional capacity today. 18 grow. heal. live. enjoy. myhydrolife.ca

To effectively express how specific<br />

abilities on a resume should always<br />

the cannabis resume example above.<br />

management competency.<br />
IMPORTANT SECTIONS<br />
TO INCLUDE<br />
There are three sections that<br />
should be included on all cannabis<br />

examples are again drawn from the<br />
