Jobfox- Get hunted!

Jobfox is the inspiration of Rob McGovern, who was the Founder and former Chairman and CEO of CareerBuilder.com.   As it claims,  Jobfox is a job matching site.  Recently, Jobfox is named a Red Herring 100 Award Finalist, as it's said to be leading the next wave of innovation.

To experienced, create your resume for free, Jobfox then will match you to the jobs- which I think it's something like Jobster, but Jobfox seems to be more professional and direct to the target, but without video resume, without social networking.  You can check sample profile here.

Instead, Jobfox help you to create a flash-based Experience Map, which recruiters may love- intuitionistic and convenient.  Recruiter and you can easily check your skills, education and working experiences.

My work type picture can make the employers know whether you are his target, both people type and task type.  As Jobfox describe:

Transformer - Transactor
Description: Transformers combine interpersonal sensitivity with powerful social networks and definite leadership impact. Transactors combine thoughtful analysis with the driven pursuit of goals. They enjoy challenges and can be relied upon to deliver results.

By well defining and branding yourself  in Jobfox, employers are happy to hunt you!  Save time.  However, Jobfox can't let you connect to employers, you don't know who will you contact.  What you do is only waiting... may flaw, but not a big problem.
