How
are CareerFolios different?
CareerFolios'
page designs are eye-appealing and appropriate for most job seekers. They do not rely on candidate photographs or Flash technology
to provide design focus. Even better, your CareerFolio is search engine friendly and can be indexed on search engines such as Google.
Flexibility—Buy
Only What You Need
You
can start small and build your CareerFolio™
as you go – or create a full-scale customized
web portfolio to meet your specific needs.
All
Inclusive Packages
CareerFolios packages include everything you need: multiple design options,
set up from text file, intuitive URL, and six months of hosting.
Do-it-Yourself
Updating (optional)
You
can use CareerFolios' online system to update your CareerFolio resume
– No technical skills required!
Your
CareerFolio will have a web address (URL) based on
your name:
www.careerfolio.com/yourname
This
feature makes it easy to market your CareerFolio –
i.e., the URL is intuitive enough to pass along during
conversation and short enough to list on your hard
copy resume and other personal marketing documents.

to Know (McGraw-Hill). Pat has 25 years' experience
as a professional resume writer and co-developed the
original CareerFolios concept in 2000 with partners
