VANCOUVER, B.C., Nov. 15, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- VisualCV (VCV), creators of the leading online resume and CV builder, today announced that it has enhanced its platform to include new mobile app functionality for busy job seekers. Available immediately through the App Store and Google Play, VisualCV Mobile enables professionals to create, edit and share professional resumes via their mobile device.
Unlike static text-based resumes, VisualCV is a cross-platform resume management tool that was designed for the modern professional. The mobile applications are particularly important given that more than 50 percent of job board traffic comes from mobile channels according to studies and 50 percent of smartphone job seekers have used their smartphone to fill out an online job application. In fact, nearly half (48 percent) of job seekers believe mobile devices will be the most common way to search for jobs in two years.
“People are no longer tied to a desktop when searching for their next opportunity, yet customizing a resume for a job application is nearly impossible on a mobile device,” said James Clift, CEO of VisualCV. “In today’s competitive job market, employers want a succinct, comparable version of your profile that is customized to show why you are the best fit for the job. A one-size-fits-all resume won’t cut it. With over a million members, our mission is to provide candidates the tools they need to manage their professional profile and make that great first impression whether they are at home or on their mobile device.”
VisualCV empowers job seekers and freelancers to create comprehensive, visually appealing displays of their professional abilities in multiple formats to stand out from the competition and make an impactful first impression.
New mobile capabilities liberate members by allowing them to easily create, edit and download multiple resumes/CVs anytime and anywhere, so they can apply to their next job with confidence when it is most convenient for them.
