Local software developer introduces free online resume and portfolio tool


Visit Raveal.com to create a on-line personal career profile.

Last week, Flowz announced the launch of its flagship product - Raveal - a one-stop online resume/profile management tool.  Free to its users, Raveal offers an impressive opportunity to build a solid personal source for your occupational identity.

Headquartered in Troy, Michigan, the company has designed a tool to help you stand out with an online presense that develops a personal brand for your career.  “With unemployment still high, individuals need to stand out from the crowd.  Maintaining a strong online presence and building a personal brand is no longer nice to have, it’s a must have,” said Flowz president, Scott Garretson in the company's press release.

You can learn more about Raveal by visiting Flowz's resource blog or viewing the demo video below, but here are is a short rundown of what it offers to those looking to enhance their career through greater online media presence:

  Profile:  After signing up with your name, email address and a password, you are able to enter your basic information.  This includes your title, occupation, availability, and public contact information.

 Resume:  A template is ready for you to enter your traditional work experience, education, and objective, which can be viewed by the public and specifically job providers.

 Portfolio:  Here you may include audio, video, images, and text-based documents which chronicle your work history and professional abilities.  This aspect provides medium-sized thumbnail previews and a polished presentation in public view.

 Voice:  This portion of your profile compiles any social media used to enhance your professional identity, including twitter, youtube, personal blog, and most others.

 Virtual business card:  Your profile is given a unique URL that can be easily shared.

 Additional features:  Raveal allows you to include an audio introduction playable on your public profile.  In addition, you are able to track public awareness, as every view of your resume, portfolio, or voice is recorded, including a record of search terms used to reach your personal profile.  The entire profile can be customized with various pre-set themes, or by personal development of your own.

 For job seekers:  High-resolution pdf versions of your resume and your complete portfolio are available for easy printing and sending to potential employers.  In addition, a comprehensive job board is available with numerous job listings.  When companies and other organizations post these listings, Raveal users are able to apply (via submitting your complete profile, resume, and portfolio) with one click, as well as the opportunity to include a customized introduction or cover letter.

 If you are interested in gaining additional exposure and standing out with an online presence, then take a look at Raveal and see if it suits you.  Feel free to include your thoughts or questions in the comments below, or by contacting me at this address.
