How to be noticed when hiring responsible is reading Resumes



Stand Out To Employers

BriteTab is a new kind of online resume, empowering job-seekers to show off their personality and experience and stand out from the crowd by combining the best elements of traditional resumes and video resumes. In today’s competitive and ever-changing job market, it can be a challenge to effectively communicate what you have to offer and get employers to take notice. Traditional paper resumes often get lost in a sea of submissions, and few hiring managers have the time or patience to sit through lengthy, all-video applications. With a BriteTab online resume, you’ll gain an instant edge over the competition when you’re able to show hiring managers what you can offer in an innovative way that truly catches their attention.

BriteTab is all about you and your personal job search. Our resumes are designed to accentuate your personality and speak to the standards of your specific industry, offering a variety of themes and customization options. You can upload videos that correspond to each particular section of your resume so that hiring managers don’t have to navigate through one long video to find out why you’re the perfect candidate. You can send your resume to as many people as you want, and it won’t include distracting advertising or branding. BriteTab also allows you to make, save, and edit multiple resumes; each with a unique URL that is kept private.

With a BriteTab resume, you can:

  • Impress employers with a quality resume in an eye-catching, personalized format
  • Include multiple video clips that show your personality and expand on your experience
  • Gain increased visibility in the job market with a resume that’s easily forwarded and viewed with a simple click of a link
  • Access metrics on the number of times your online resume has been viewed
  • Create multiple online resumes and edit them at your convenience

How It Works

BriteTab offers job-seekers a simple, step-by-step way to create an attention-grabbing resume. Simply sign up, launch the resume-creating application, choose a format, enter text, upload corresponding videos (optional), and save. Once you save and publish your resumes online, you will receive a unique link to send anywhere you’d like, and can edit your resume at any time by logging into your BriteTab account.

Networking

BriteTab resumes not only empower job-seekers to land the positions of their dreams, they also offer employers an effective way of screening applicants to pursue only the most confident, top-notch talent before ever having to conduct interviews. With BriteTab resumes, companies get a useful look at candidates’ personalities with the simple click of a link.

Resume Tracker Freeware Software Organizes Your Resumes


Windows Only: You probably don't send the same exact resume for every single job opening and will fine tune it according to the vacancy. Keeping track and holding control of what you sent can be a pain in the ass (excuse me for this expression). ResumeTracker does a smart and simple job of organizing and labeling your multi-versioned  resumes for later reference.


The application itself is still in its early stages, and there are two things to note right off the bat.

First of all the application really requires Microsoft Word, unless your non-Word editing tool happens to agree with it.
And secondly the application also requires Administrator access to run well.

Those complaints aside, ResumeTracker works just fine for the common Job Searcher (using MS Word), providing an organized way of creating a Master Resume, creating new entries for each vacancy or job title, then linking a customized version of that master resume to each job pitch, with notes on when you sent it, who it was sent to, and the like. So you keep a good registration of each slightly or heavily changed Resume assigned to a specific job.

ResumeTracker is a free download for Windows systems only. What's your preferred multi-resume tracking system, other than remembering to rename your .doc files for every single job?

The download link is this sentence.
