Rsumfit Achieves Goals of a Video Resume Using MS Word

The goals of video resumes are worthy. Candidates want to differentiate themselves and employers want to learn something about the prospective candidateís workplace persona and character.

ìMany of the early video resumes have been criticized by corporations and recruiters who not only dislike the uneven content and quality but employers concede they are ill-prepared to work with video resumes,î wrote Rusty Weston, founder and chief blogger at MyGlobalCareer.com.

Rsumfit has developed an alternative for allowing employers to gain additional valuable insight into a candidateís workplace persona. ìThe interest in video resumes does suggest that candidates continue to search for a better way to represent themselves,î said Tom Schmidt, Rsumfit president and founder. ìRsumfit provides an alternative to the video resume that gives employers true value in providing insight into a candidateís workplace persona.î

This yearís college and university graduating students can especially benefit by completing Rsumfitís ìnext genî resume process. Much of what a college student brings to their prospective employer is who they are.

Rsumfit has the ability to scientifically measure a candidateís 29 workplace personality traits and up to 54 workplace competencies, which give employers insight into a candidateís workplace persona. Rsumfit can benefit both the candidate and prospective employer by allowing candidates to better represent themselves and employers to make more well-informed candidate selection decisions.

Candidates complete a workplace specific assessment one time and then upload their MS Word resume. Once the data is inserted in the candidateís resume, the document is digitally signed using asymmetric cryptography, which is a class three code signing certificate issued by VeriSign(TM). The digital signature gives the candidateís resume proof of data integrity as well as provides the reviewer bullet-proof document alteration detection. Since the resume is in MS Word it can be seamlessly integrated into past, present and future hiring processes. No special software or hardware is required by anyone to open and read the document.
