What does Yoomly do?
Yoomly is a new type of job search and employee finding website. Yoomly creates a marketplace for both employees and employers, allowing employers to compete for employees and vice-versa. Employees create employee profiles, which offer extremely high visibility–including easy access to employers and ranking on Google–as well as easy personalization (users can even upload video clips). Yoomly is a smarter way of finding jobs and employees.
How are they different?
Yoomly takes the mystery away from finding jobs and employees. Instead of showing only a black and white resume, employees can show a full profile to employers. Employees can easily see information about other applicants applying to positions and can therefore connect with employers faster. Yoomly also offers much more exposure than traditional job search websites–with all employee profiles indexed in major search engines. Employers can also see basic information about other employers offering employment to candidates. Yoomly is completely free for employers and employees.
Why could Yoomly be BIG?
Many businesses cannot afford to hire employees on traditional job search websites, with job postings often costing around $500–Yoomly is an efficient, free alternative. Yoomly creates an efficient marketplace between employers and employees–which will help employers find employees they can afford–an extremely important benefit, especially in a recession.
How they plan to make money:
Yoomly will eventually be a paid service in some sort of way for employers–we will most likely not be charging employees to use the service.

No thoughts at the moment. Very interesting!
