It takes a lot to get noticed in a competitive job market, but Purzue has found a way to help job seekers who use its platform stand apart from the pack. The web-based application helps people create stylish digital resumes that employers are likely to notice.

To expedite this process, you also have the option to import past employer data straight from Facebook or Linkedin.
