JobOn: Using Video Profiles to Connect Hourly Job Seekers with Employers

A new DC-based startup called JobOn wants to change that decades-old process.  Thanks to webcams and cloud technology, job seekers can record and upload a free video profile in which they answer standard interview questions and email it directly to hiring managers. The managers then have a better screening tool and can invite in only the best for a second interview.

JobOn launched last fall and has gained traction among both seekers and employers because it offers both the video application component and job listings.  Customers include restaurant chain Greene Turtle, franchisees for Quiznos and Dunkin’ Donuts, Pohanka Automotive Group, Zips Dry Cleaners, Verizon Wireless retailers, Amtrak and even Computer Sciences Corporation.
