Great work! I have one suggestion though. Let users immediately start filling in information and THEN let them create an account. I wanted to try it out, but then realized I needed to put my email in and select a password. Not a bad thing, but you'll get a lower bounce rate if you save the account creation for later.

(Also, this sort of thing would work great with Facebook connect -- you could pull name, education, work history, and phone numbers automatically. Maybe LinkedIn has an API to?)



Thanks. I'll try to remove the upfront signup process. I will also try to integrate Twitter/FB connect.

There is a LinkedIn import, but it is one of the PRO features. More about that here - http://www.resumonk.com/pro


LinkedIn already has a similar service:
