Protuo.Com Career Portfolio Management Web Site to Launch at 2007 CES in Las Vegas
ATLANTA, Jan. 9 /PRNewswire/ — Protuo(TM), the first Web-based career management service to provide candidates, HR executives and recruiters with patent-pending, best-fit career matching solutions and tools to easily create sophisticated multi-media career portfolios, will officially launch January 9th in Las Vegas at the 2007 Consumer Electronics Show (CES).
http://www.protuo.com/ has combined its exclusive Best-Fit Match(TM) service, a proprietary algorithmic methodology similar to that used by social networking Web sites, with easy-to-use templates that simplify the creation of increasingly essential career portfolios. The result is a network that helps match both entry level and experienced professionals with the specific requirements of recruiters and human resource executives.
Other features including career database access; Post-Pal, a service that automatically posts job notices on over 270 job boards, including Monster, Career Builder and Hot Jobs; Brand Building Web sites that provide details of a company’s jobs, benefits, perks and advancement prospects, and Featured Employer, are available with Protuo membership.
“The concept behind our career portfolios is ‘Don’t tell me — show me,’” said Keenan Hogg, Protuo’s president and CEO. “Rather than sending potential employers a standard, humdrum two-page resume, our customers can quickly design and assemble a stunning digital portfolio that can include illustrative items such as letters of commendation, performance evaluations, certificates, pictures, recorded speeches and even video clips.”
Using Best-Fit Match, recruiters, HR managers and aspiring professionals complete a survey that defines their ideal employer or employee. Developed in collaboration with human resource experts, the surveys are evaluated in real- time using a weighted average that calculates a percentage of matches. The results are instantly communicated to both parties who are then permitted access either to the applicant’s online career portfolio or the potential employer’s own Protuo Web site.
“Protuo is the most cost-effective way for employers and recruiters to identify and locate qualified candidates and increase their percentage of successful hires,” said Hogg. “This is because personnel officers save the hours they ordinarily spend sifting through hundreds of resumes. And our numerous built-in networking and communications features — such as Instant Messaging and Skype — help them reduce travel expenses by interviewing candidates online.” For more information, visit http://www.protuo.com/, or contact Protuo customer service at 888-PROTUO2.
