Résumés out.
Résumés and cover letters don't work. Résumés are padded and exaggerated, cover letters are blatant hyperbole, and both make job and talent searching needlessly complex. So, we got rid of them.
Skills in.
On Venturocket, users simply list keywords and short phrases describing the general professions, explicit skills, unique qualifications, and personal characteristics they possess or require.
Experience-based.
Job seekers specify their experience by bidding to indicate where they fit into the market for each of their skills. Bids start at just 25¢ per skill.
Competition-based.
As more job seekers add a particular skill to their profile, the market for that skill reflects the change in supply and range of bids.
Results-based.
Create a profile and view matches for free. Pay only for actual connections. No subscriptions, no "premium" résumés. Just results.
Only quality matches.
On Venturocket, our unique skill matching system automatically finds each job seeker's best opportunities. The quality of each match is based on how many and how closely the job seeker's skills match the opportunity's requirements.
Never apply for a job again.
Venturocket creates a list of matching candidates for every job listing automatically, so job seekers never have to manually apply for jobs again, and employers can rest assured each candidate is actually qualified.
Anonymous and precise.
Job seekers are presented anonymously in match results until an employer decides to make a connection. The connection price is the sum of the job seeker's bids for only the skills that match an employer's job listing.
Honest and equal.
When a connection is made on Venturocket, both the job seeker and the employer pay the same price. This helps ensure that the job seeker truly posseses his stated skills and the employer is serious about setting up an interview.
Unlimited Posting.
Paying up to $500 to post a job for only 30 days just to wade through thousands of unqualified applicants doesn't make sense. On Venturocket, it's free to post an unlimited number of job listings, they never expire, and it's easy to find the perfect candidate.
Limited Spending.
When an employer initiates a connection, both the employer and job seeker are charged immediately and automatically. To prevent them from exceeding their budget, job seekers may set daily, weekly, monthly, and overall spending limits.
