Trying to find a job in the 21st century is no easy task. Applying to each job can take up to 10 minutes, the jobs are scattered among many sites. 

The job is also difficult for the hiring managers and recruiters. Once a job vacancy is created, there are two ways to proceed. One is to post the job on whatever hiring system is being used and wait for applicants. The second is to scour the web searching for candidates. 

A site we recently came across is ResumeRobin.com. This site actually has a very decent free resume search engine that allows to search for candidates by keywords and location.

How effective are Resume Distribution Services?

Some can be very effective. They work by submitting the resume, via special software, the resume to various job boards, applicant tracking systems and corporate websites. Recruiters then search these websites when they have an open vacancy. This technique can be quite effective for the job seeker as their resume goes out to many places with the click of a mouse.

In our testing,  ResumeRobin.com was the most effective at resume distribution.

How is the Resume Distributed?

The resume is usually originally created in a word processing program. Once the resume is uploaded to a resume distribution site, such as ResumeRobin.com, it is converted into HTML format and stored in the site's database. The system proceeds to connect with each of the thousands other server and transmits the information to them. During transmission, information is verified to make sure it has transmitted successfully.
