Hi-Tech Resumes are a new generation of resume with multimedia embedded directly in it. A Hi-Tech Resume comes in MS Word and Adobe formats. Hi-Tech Resumes use web technology along with flash video streaming. The only difference is that in addition to the standard text content there is an embedded multimedia option available for potential employer to view. It is time to break away from the old way of doing things. Why should resumes stay the same, while technology advances all around us. We are a video intensive society.

Questions asked about Hi-Tech Resumes
Will Hi-Tech Resume work on all computers?
Yes. All computers have compatibility issues at some time or another. A PC or MAC with the latest version of Adobe Reader installed should be able to access the full functionality of our Hi-Tech Resume.pdf. You don't need flash installed on a computer to view these resumes, the flash is embedded in the resume.
Recruiters have only a few seconds to view the CV and decide to discard it or not. How will this technology help them?
Most Human Resource organizations have Adobe Reader and MS Word. HR people can review and scan your Hi-Tech Resume like any ordinary text resume, however, after viewing the resume if there is interest in the written content, the HR person can choose to exercise the embedded multimedia feature to meet you in person without leaving the document. My guess is curiosity would prevail and they would click on the multimedia option, 100% of the time.
Will Hi-Tech Resumes have bandwidth issues?
By design, the site has a two minute limit on multimedia content. The goal is by limiting the size of the file it will help create a smooth playback and will also help the user create a streamlined multimedia presentation, creating a product that is helpful and adds to their job search, as opposed to hurting it.
