Define what URL params are

URL params allow us to pass data into the application from the URL

Create an external data file

Now we're going to have how app be a little more data driven. Create src/app/resume/jobs.ts:

export const JOBS = [
    {
        id:1,
        title: 'Software Engineer',
        location: 'Initech',
        dates: '2003-2008',
        description: 'I HAVE PEOPLE SKILLS!!'
    },
    {
        id:2,
        title: 'Chief Code Jockey',
        location: 'jockey.com',
        dates: '2008-2010',
        description: 'Taming the wild code beast. A story for all ages. A friendship for all time. Share the adventure.'
    },
    {
        id:3,
        title: 'Crushed It',
        dates: '2010-2011, 2013-Present',
        description: 'There was a medical situation preventing me from crushing it to my usual standards. So I had to take some time off until I was able to crush it at 100%, at which point I resumed crushing it full-time.'
    }
]

Use the data file to generate links
