We started the company in 2014 by matching jobs with resumes using LinkedIn’s API, scaled to $50K MRR and then LinkedIn shut us down. Now you can’t even get access to their API without talking to them. They own all your data and decide what they want to do with it. Decentralization lets users control their data and decide what to do with it. Your profile on SpringRole is something you want to be able to customize, enrich with different modules, get it verified and finally own it. Exciting times ahead!

@kar2905 In a way, LinkedIn shutting you down was the best thing that happened to you 😉You know offer a true decentralized alternative to LinkedIn without sacrificing UX thanks to a clever use of signed data 🙂Very well executed, bravo 💯

We are very happy to introduce SpringRole to the ProductHunt community. Our mission with SpringRole is to enable everyone's #VerifiedProfessionalProfile on the Blockchain. SpringRole is the platform where people can view, share and get attestations on their professional profile, thereby creating a verified resume that they can share and use. A user’s educational qualifications and work experience are verified by the organisations themselves and written directly to the blockchain. To assess a user’s skill set, SpringRole has a system of weighted endorsements that let users objectively look at people’s profiles and assess their skill level.

Registered on this platfom probably 2-3 months ago, and it still looks the same on outer. Could have done facelift and made little more impressive. Also, I did all the verification process and yet it shows as 50% verified and the tokens hasn't been rewarded for the verifications done. The support said me these issues would be solved once they would complete moving to their blockchain, but it was more than a month ago, and haven't been solved yet. Plus for last few days, I can't seem to login to my account. Yeah tried different browsers, clear cookies and everything. No success or whatsoever!

Pros:

Feels good to use decentralized professional platform

Cons:

Looks like it's still primitive, regular sign-in error, and unsolved token rewards

Mahesh Shrestha
@thedavidlewis actually, this is my experience after being in contact with the support!

@alphahunter I escalated this in the Support team and understand they worked through the issue with you. Feel free to reach out to me. I sent you a Message on SpringRole so I'm easy to find and it comes with 500 SPRING tokens.
