How to Make the Most of a Professional Network

The professional world has its own whims. With the increased number of skilled and well-trained individuals in every field these days, job stability and availability have big question marks to them. In such a situation, the prospect of showcasing one's capabilities, achievements and experiences on social platforms is certainly a great boost to employment opportunities.

I have, like many of my contemporaries, taken to using online platforms for uploading my resume, portfolio, work experiences and other relevant data that could fetch me better career opportunities. What never fails to strike me is the fact that I am sharing personal and professional information, besides other valuable content over a platform that has nothing to give back to me, unless, of course, I get lucky enough to land a job.

Could a platform reward its users for participation and sharing of respective data? Apparently, yes. Project Spring Foundation, a brainchild of blockchain technology, is all set to incentivize users and attesters, thus enabling the creation of a resourceful and prospective platform for both job seekers and employers.

What is the Spring Protocol?

The Spring Protocol can be deemed as a step towards a better organised and powerful solution to job seekers as well as hirers, by blending blockchain with an online portal dedicated solely to career building. Resumes, portfolios and other relevant data shared by a professional will be cryptographically validated, and the user would be rewarded for his participation. It also acts as a job portal, listing out any recently updates career or freelance opportunities.

Why Spring Foundation?

Besides the prime motive of being able to generate a platform that will reward user participation unlike the common platforms of today, the Spring Protocol has another important and very interesting cause to itself.

CVs usually have information such as work experience and education which can be easily forged to attain suitable career opportunities. This is belittling for the respective employer as well as for other career enthusiasts.

The Spring Protocol, because of its innovative amalgamation with Blockchain technology, has a mechanism for rightful verification of the user's resume through attestation check. This would help users to build trust and reputation, while also eliminating any forgeries from the field.

How it works?

The Spring Protocol provides a dual level identification process to verify a user's personal information. The user is supposed to provide all relevant data and documents to the platform. Universities would be accessed for detailed information about a student, including grades across semesters, so that the user is exempted from uploading any extra documents.

The user would achieve scores or points for every verified endorsement, and the person with the highest scores is, as evident, the most skilful. Companies could, hence, shortlist with ease any prospective employees.

Users would be paid rewards on the basis of the type and investment in each endorsement of theirs. Employers can, with a simple payment, check for all-round validation of an individual. This validation is a process for which the Spring Protocol seeks attesters.

Who is an Attester?

The procedure of attestation would be completely secure and transparent, with the sole aim to verify the user's credentials and resume. Attestations would be required for skill endorsements, educational qualifications, additional courses and work experiences. Attesters include registered individuals, companies, educational institutions, MOOCs and examination providers, that can back up the individual's claims in his portfolio.

Token and ICO Details

SPRING is the token on the Spring ecosystem, which is to be used for all kinds of transactions – be it rewards for endorsements and validation, mediators, attestations or referrals. SPRING, an ERC20 token, accepts ETH. The hard cap value is 12 million USD, while the soft cap value is 1 million USD. The price of 1 SPRING = 0.00002 ETH.

Verdict

Without an iota of doubt, it can be said that the Spring Protocol is an innovation in the field of blockchain technology as well as in the world of professionalism. With a promising premise, the Spring protocol is all set to turn the world of career seeking upside down. Beneficial to job seekers as well as employers, not to mention mediators and attesters, the Spring Protocol has something to offer for all who participate on it. This certainly makes it a good deal and a ready reckoner.
