Nokia today launched a very cool app called JobLens, exclusive for Nokia Lumia smartphones, and it is fundamentally changing the way people find, apply to and get their next job.
JobLens helps job seekers:
- Find the perfect job
- Identify people in their social network who can connect them to the hiring manager
- Create and store their resume/CV
- Apply to the job
- Learn about neighborhood demographics, salary ranges and job trends for specific jobs
- Get directions to the interview
- Get up-to-date news and information about employers they like
- Save jobs they like and track their progress
JobLens helps consumers see jobs all around them through augmented reality, provides traditional search tools to find the perfect job, and empowers users to land those jobs leveraging some of the biggest, most respected brands in career services. Powered by Indeed, Linkedin, Here Maps, Twitter, Facebook, Windows Live and other best-in-class content partners, the app enables job seekers to discover new job opportunities in both the physical world and through their social networks.
JobLens is available in the U.S. and Canada on Nokia Lumia Windows Phone 8 devices, including the Lumia 928. Additional launch details for future markets will be announced at a later date.Nokia's
