NEW! Send your CV via SMS from anywhere no need for a computer!

It’s going to be history for job seekers to go to towns and pay so much just to send their CVs to employers. “Seen jobs on a newspaper but you are far away from a computer to send it? Quickly and affordably send your CV via SMS anywhere you are no need for a computer!”, says Paul Manjanja, Product Manager of My Mobile CV™ from Numedia Technologies, a mobile marketing and advertising agency and software house that develops mobile phone-based solutions for society, founded on the vision of creating mobile phone technology-based services that enable users of mobile phones to access utilitarian information services thereby help  bridge the information divide in South Africa and Africa at large, with 83% of the market having access to mobile phones compared to just 10% of with computers with internet, “I grew up in uMlazi township, KwaZulu-Natal, computers and internet are real luxuries for most people in such places, I remember I would see a job on some newspaper and it would be quite a challenge to find the money to travel to town via taxi at R20 return fare plus a further R20 for just one hour of internet access at an internet cafe which brought the total to R40! I simply just couldn’t afford to apply for jobs anytime I wanted to!” He explains how to use this My Mobile CV™ service to send a CV using SMS, “You need to first send an SMS ‘Join’ (without the quotes) to our easy to remember 5-digit number 43570 using your mobile phone, you will be registered automatically as a member and shortly there after you will receive your passwordvia via SMS, there after you need to go to a computer with internet just once and visit our website, www.mobijobs.co.za, to login.” Paul Manjanja continues, “Once logged in you will see an option to create your My Mobile CV™ profile and upload your CV in Microsoft Word or PDF file format and I recommend that the first page of your CV be your cover letter to briefly impress the employer of your key attributes and that’s it!” he continues smiling “Now when you see a job on a newspaper sending your CV from your mobile phone anywhere anytime it’s simply child’s play, it’s so easy even old people not necessarily computer friendly can create an SMS” he smiles “You simply create an SMS to our easy to remember 5-digit number 43570, eg SENDCV jobs@companyname.co.za, and voila! Your CV will be sent to the employer automatically via a nicely worded email with your e-mail signature automatically inserted at the end!”

“It seems in spite of the great strides government have made to provide widespread access to the internet network using fixed line, great infrastructural challenges still exist because of the typography and the economics of rolling out fixed telephone line based networks throughout the country, mobile technologies like SMS and mobile internet it seems to me are the only solution for people in townships and rural areas in particular to have access to information and internet services, thus with My Mobile CV™ service I do not want to see any job seeker especially from historically disadvantaged communities not getting a chance to also have access to employment opportunities just because they can’t afford to apply for jobs!” he concludes smiling with a visionary sparkle in his eyes.
