San Francisco, CA (1888PressRelease) October 07, 2011 - Cvlynk.com, a free global web service that makes a direct connection between a Personal Index ™ and a personal brand, has announced today that it is releasing a public beta of its profile connection service.

Many Location Choices for Primacy Profile

How often do you hear the question: Where can I find you online? Where do you keep resume, or your brand?

Cvlynk answers these questions and breaks through the clutter and connects to the profile that an individual has identified as their current primary location. It enables hiring agents, potential employers, executives, journalists and others to always reach someone's most current profile without search and navigation.

There many choices where someone can store a primary profile and Cvlynk allows individuals to select what is best for them and change anytime.

How it Works
Individuals go on the Cvlynk site and register their personal indexes and link them to where they choose to keep their current profile. This could be a LinkedIn profile, a bio on a corporate web site, or a personal brand page.
Because Cvlynk's connection service works the same way, each time, regardless of where a person's personal indexes actually point, individuals can change this link at any time without having to notify everyone in their network. This transparency allows a user to temporarily point to a video or special profile and then return it to the central site when appropriate.
Cvlynk enables individuals to keep their profile on the network that best serves their interests yet still allows them to be found and connected to on in one-step

Supports Job Searching
Recruiters save time and effort by making a one-step connection to a candidate's most current profile or resume. When a recruiter gets a reference, or an email, or a Tweet, they are able to reach the associated, detailed profile in one-step.

- Eliminates the need to check multiple sites to find current resume
- Avoids chasing someone who has taken a job - no stale resumes
- Find current resume in any language
- Makes if simple to view a resume from a mobile number on a business card
- One-step connect to professional identity on LinkedIn
- Reliable and predictable
- Persistent - PI will always go to personal brand / profile even when users changes location

Displays Present Job Availability
In addition to presenting the current profile, Cvlynk also displays current availability status. Since job status is subject to change, especially in a turbulent labor market, the present availability of a potential candidate is very important for recruiters to know. Cvlynk provides recruiters with this knowledge giving the individual a simple tool to revise his or her availability status at any time.

This is especially useful to staffing agencies where availability changes are a key part of the placement process. And, for individuals it helps stop recruiter calls once they have secured a job.

Staffing Firms Agree
"Cvlynk is extremely valuable to my firm," says Alin Popescu, CEO of 11th Hour Search, a top recruiting firm in Washington DC. "By having our candidates register on Cvlynk, we can shave thirty percent off the time we spend locating and verifying current résumés and checking job availability. We avoid hours needed to track down candidates -- only to discover they were no longer available". He added, "When our clients need staff, the sooner we present qualified candidates, the better. Now, with Cvlynk, we just enter a candidate's mobile phone number, e-mail address or twitter ID, and we instantly know where we stand with every single candidate. This is huge for the recruiting industry."

Business Card Power
Most employers do not allow personal links on business cards so people frequently resort to writing personal URL's on the back of a card. With Cvlynk, the mobile number and email are already present on most cards and thus serve as reliable indexes for retrieving a personal profile. Ray Kasbarian, CEO of Cvlynk.com, said, "Being able to connect to a profile from business card information is a high impact use of the service. It enhances networking. When you meet someone who might be a potential candidate or partner, with information found on a business card, you simply enter the person's mobile number, e-mail address, or Twitter ID and you are instantly connected to one's most up-to-date information, regardless of where it is stored."

Eliminates Common Name Syndrome
Cvlynk saves time by eliminating the examination of individuals who have similar names; Cvlynk guarantees connection success.
