The Movement
You Are More Than a Resume.
Traditional resumes reduce people to job titles, dates, and keywords.
JobTag is built around a different idea: let people become visible through their skills, personality, experience, and video.
Burn the Resume encourages candidates to step beyond the traditional CV and show the person behind it.
