Lantana, FL − October 7, 2008. HireMeNow.com, LLC, an online temporary employment marketplace and pioneer in multimedia recruiting, today unveiled the AudioIntro, a new service for job seekers and hiring managers that incorporates many of the benefits of a video resume without the video itself.
 |
The AudioIntro is the compilation of an audio recording and a still photograph of a job seeker (or a standard silhouette). It is a free service offered to all HireMeNow.com job candidates and can be used to help obtain a job with a HireMeNow.com client company, or any employer who receives a password protected link to view that candidate's profile. |
Allen Bornstein, president of HireMeNow.com, said, "We understand that not everyone will be comfortable creating a video resume, or as we call it, a VINTRO or video introduction. The AudioIntro mimics what a VINTRO does, while eliminating some of the main barriers associated with creating a VINTRO, namely camera shyness and being uncomfortable with the technology behind video cameras and video files."
"The AudioIntro, like the VINTRO, should be a maximum duration of one minute and the content should get across to the hiring manager what makes a person stand out over and above all the other candidates. The medium reveals the job seeker's enthusiasm, energy and attitude − all important attributes in the hiring decision. We feel that when a written resume or profile is combined with our AudioIntro, the hiring manager has enough information to reduce a lot of the traditional work, time and cost involved in the recruiting process. Of course, posting or viewing an AudioIntro is free to HireMeNow.com job candidates and hiring companies."
