Merit badges for entry level hiring

About

workforce.io is software-as-a-service that allows employers to receive qualified, recommended candidates from the job trainers and mentors in their local community. We do away with resumes and bring people back to the equation. We've built a proprietary job skill library that provides the mechanism to connect employers with trainers. Our job skills are a novel implementation of Mozilla Open Badges that will revolutionize entry-level hiring. Our unique go-to-market strategy leverages the workforce networks that exists in every major city and gives us quick exposure to thousands of trainers and employers that our platform serves. Compelling, behind-the-scenes videos of specific jobs and the skills required remove the mystery of what is needed to do a job and aligns trainers' incentives with employers' needs.
