the CareerFolio provides

tool.

CareerFolios'
Design Philosophy
CareerFolios'
design philosophy is simple:
CareerFolios
are designed for maximum "human"
usability on the Web:
- 24/7
Searchable Content: CareerFolios
pages are searchable and indexable
by resume spiders and sites such
as Google.
- Appropriate
Design Graphics: CareerFolios'
designs complement (rather than
overwhelm) the resume. In addition,
CareerFolios do not rely on photographs
- which are not always appropriate
on resumes - as the primary design
element.
- Eye
Appealing Styles: CareerFolios'
eye-catching styles are designed
for optimum "human" readability.
CareerFolios'
high-contrast pages and use of type
reflect best practices in web readability.
In addition, set-width pages ensure
that all resume text is readable
when printed.
- Optimum
Readability: Database
Ready Text Download:
- Intuitive
URL:

Tested: CareerFolios styles are
designed to look good on various
browsers.
