Does it seem a little risky to bet 40 million bucks ++ on a technology that requires corporate networks to continue allow the Jobfox document to send its little string home ?
I also never understood what is really actionable about knowing that my resume was read….
As a halo feature to help build up a job board business it makes a little sense, but does a job board business in the current market still command $40M in funding ?
This one is a mystery to me……
