Firm joins prestigeous Technology Business Park at Florida Atlantic University

BOCA RATON, FLORIDA (PRWEB) January 25, 2005 - Power Talent Network, a provider of electronic career solutions to career management firms, announced today that it has established headquarters at Florida Atlantic University’s Technology Business Park in Boca Raton. Founded in 2002, Power Talent is expanding operations to meet the growing need for its career web solutions.

“Our new location in FAU’s Technology Business Park gives us valuable access to the university’s marketing, financial and technical expertise,” stated John Mee, CEO of Power Talent. “Through related community programs, we also gain access to top business advisors for strategic alliances, technology transfer, business strategy, capital funding, and product development,” he said.

Professionals in career transition use Power Talent's career web portfolios to attract attention, create more powerful telephone interviews, strengthen personal interviews, and maximize the effectiveness of business networking.

“Our career web portfolios give job seekers professionally-designed, compelling presentations of their most significant strengths and achievements,” stated Power Talent Executive Vice President Mark Yavelow. “They use advertising psychology and the visual power of the internet to help our clients open doors for job interviews,” he added.

During telephone interviews, candidates co-browse a personal online career showcase with prospective employers over the internet, visually showing and explaining their achievements.

This showcase, called a "career web portfolio," is the centerpiece of Power Talent’s system. It provides a universally-accessible, interactive demonstration of a professional’s career strengths. Using graphs, charts, and images, along with advertising psychology, career web portfolios give Power Talent's clients a powerful new tool for advancing their career interests.

“Psychological tests have proven that people remember 11% of what they read, 20% of what they hear, 27% of what they see, and 52% of what they both hear and see,” Yavelow explained. “Co-browsing a career web portfolio can yield 400% more impact than a resume alone, which helps our clients stand out from the crowd and secure personal interviews.”

Once in the door, candidates can strengthen their live presentation with a portable portfolio featuring graphs and charts which quantify the value they can deliver, thereby increasing their chances of employment. The portfolio can be displayed on a pocket pc or a tablet pc.

After they are hired, users can deploy their portfolios to acquaint co-workers with their background and skills, paving the way for effective new working relationships.

As time progresses, customers can enhance their portfolios, and use them to increase the effectiveness of their business networking activity to advance their careers.

Power Talent web portfolios are used by career coaches to give their clients competitive advantages in the job marketplace. Building the portfolios is straightforward and uncomplicated. Career coaching firms simply upload plain text and images, and Power Talent produces the sites.
