Protuo.com Career Portfolio Management Web Site to Launch at 2007 CES in Las Vegas

    ATLANTA, Jan. 9 /PRNewswire/ -- Protuo(TM), the first Web-based career
management service to provide candidates, HR executives and recruiters with
patent-pending, best-fit career matching solutions and tools to easily
create sophisticated multi-media career portfolios, will officially launch
January 9th in Las Vegas at the 2007 Consumer Electronics Show (CES).
    http://www.protuo.com has combined its exclusive Best-Fit Match(TM) service, a
proprietary algorithmic methodology similar to that used by social
networking Web sites, with easy-to-use templates that simplify the creation
of increasingly essential career portfolios. The result is a network that
helps match both entry level and experienced professionals with the
specific requirements of recruiters and human resource executives.
    Other features including career database access; Post-Pal, a service
that automatically posts job notices on over 270 job boards, including
Monster, Career Builder and Hot Jobs; Brand Building Web sites that provide
details of a company's jobs, benefits, perks and advancement prospects, and
Featured Employer, are available with Protuo membership.
    "The concept behind our career portfolios is 'Don't tell me -- show
me,'" said Keenan Hogg, Protuo's president and CEO. "Rather than sending
potential employers a standard, humdrum two-page resume, our customers can
quickly design and assemble a stunning digital portfolio that can include
illustrative items such as letters of commendation, performance
evaluations, certificates, pictures, recorded speeches and even video
clips."
    Using Best-Fit Match, recruiters, HR managers and aspiring
professionals complete a survey that defines their ideal employer or
employee. Developed in collaboration with human resource experts, the
surveys are evaluated in real- time using a weighted average that
calculates a percentage of matches. The results are instantly communicated
to both parties who are then permitted access either to the applicant's
online career portfolio or the potential employer's own Protuo Web site.
    "Protuo is the most cost-effective way for employers and recruiters to
identify and locate qualified candidates and increase their percentage of
successful hires," said Hogg. "This is because personnel officers save the
hours they ordinarily spend sifting through hundreds of resumes. And our
numerous built-in networking and communications features -- such as Instant
Messaging and Skype -- help them reduce travel expenses by interviewing
candidates online." For more information, visit http://www.protuo.com, or contact
