GlobalPitch: Think Facebook meets CareerBuilder, with a little YouTube

GlobalPitch

Houston startup, GlobalPitch launched it new beta site last week. Here is an overview of the service from GlobalPitch founders:

With tens of millions of resumes on the Internet, and hundreds of applicants for each job posting, it is very challenging for job seekers to differentiate themselves. GlobalPitch is the Internet destination where job seekers have a platform to rise above the millions of other candidates. Job seekers post a video profile or a photo online, along with their resume, letters of recommendation, awards and other accomplishments, and a list of references and endorsements from business associates. With GlobalPitch the job seeker can convey to their future employer their personality and “soft skills”. Hiring managers and recruiters benefit as well – they are now empowered to make better, more informed decisions about who they invite into the interview process. The company was formed in 2006 and the GlobalPitch service launched in October, 2007.

Check out the site and tell us what you think.
