Be “Easy to Find” by using Emurse.com

By Athar Khan

The first step in becoming “Easy to do Business with” would be to become “Easy to Find.” In other words, if a potential employer down the street needed someone with your exact qualifications, how would they find you?

This is why I would urge every jobseeker to have an online presence and to consider posting their resume (or CV) at www.emurse.com. There are tons of resume hosting sites out there. I like Emurse the best for the following reasons:

1) The site is free — not to mention high tech!

2) It provides a unique web address (e.g. mine is http://atharkhan.emurse.com) which you can place on the hardcopy of your resume. This is also valuable because you can submit it to search engines such as google.

3) It alerts you when someone views your resume — which is a really nice ego boost.

4) It allows potential employers to download a copy of your resume in all common formats from Text to PDF.

5) The resume is stored in a special format called “hresume” which is optimized for search engines.

Let me know what you think of Emurse by leaving a comment.
