Labels.io Shuns Outdated Resumes For Its Job Matching Algorithm

Anybody who has had to sift through hundreds of resumes at a time or placed a job advert that's gone unfilled for months will know that the recruitment process isn't always as efficient as it could be. It's not surprising then that many startups have tried to bring recruitment kicking and screaming into the Internet age - from various job sites to the professional social networking giant LinkedIn. However, Labels.io, which launches out of Beta today, thinks that most of these efforts still place too much emphasis on the traditional resume, a format that is outdated with its tendency to list countless "key accomplishments" and one that encourages "dull corporate speak", says founder Octavian Popescu. Instead, professionals are defined by three simple criteria: previous employers, skills and personality, he says, which is precisely the format that Labels.io standardises on.
