A new trend is slowly permeating the job-seeking market - and it starts with how you send your resume to potential employers. E-Resume posting is an innovative way to send your resume- as well as a professional portfolio- directly to employers without reliance on e-mail and attachments.

An E-Resume helps you create an individual, integrated professional introduction package that boasts several important advantages over traditional resume posting methods.

First and foremost, an E-Resume contains more than just your barebones CV. It also allows you to attach audio files, video files, letters of recommendation, writing samples and other files to give employers a more comprehensive view of your professional and personal accomplishments and capabilities. Dancers can attach video files of their latest performance. Actors can literally audition online. Writers can send employers articles, writing samples, etc. In other words, E-Resumes introduce you, the job seeker, to your potential employer before you even meet for a face-to-face interview. Since employers gain a basic, fundamental sense of who you are before you even walk in the door, this saves both parties considerable time, money and effort.

In the security- conscious internet environment, E-Resumes also serve a further important function. Since opening attachments often poses a major security risk in today's online environment, employers receiving your resume may be wary of opening enclosed attachments...that is if your resume even makes it past those pesky filters and attachment blockers. An E-Resume, conversely, arrives at your potential employer's virtual doorstep without attachments, and is thus a far safer and more convenient alternative. Furthermore, when opening attachments, lack of compatibility between different versions of WORD can leave your resume a garbled mess. Since an E-Resume is composed entirely online, you need not worry about the version of WORD that your potential employer may or may not have. Your resume will appear exactly as you have planned without any unexpected or unpleasant surprises.

Environmentally-aware job seekers will be pleased to hear that online resumes also further environmental conservation by reducing the amount of paper resumes that employers receive and print-out, thus preventing both waste and deforestation

E-Resumes thus clearly harbor several distinct advantages: They are quick, efficient, simple and help potential employers uncover who you truly are. Many E-Resume providers also offer eye-catching, beautifully designed templates that capture employers' attention and generate a stellar first impression.
