LinkedIn is holding your resume data for random, selling access to the recruiters you don't want to hear from because they have deep pockets.

Imagine a world where you don't have to re-enter your education and work history for every job you apply to! Imagine not having to create a new resume every time you decide to switch jobs! Imagine just sharing a semi-private URL instead.

This sounds like a market prime for disruption.

We're doing exactly that in the UK. No recruiters, direct jobseekers-employer network using chosen location, structured data and faceted search.
URL please? I've tried untapt, and been unimpressed. I'm going to need a new contract at some point, so I'm open to a new route to market.
