Netmap Software Inc. announces their newest publication, Curriculum Vitae - Quarterly. This quarterly newsletter summarizes information from the job market, provides tips on networking and provides an update on Netmap Software's flagship product, CVTracker. The most recent release of the CVTracker v.1.9.5 was released simultaneously with the newsletter with an enormous new set of features and substantial value for the job seeker getting organized.

Boston, MA (PRWEB) April 16, 2004 -- The Curriculum Vitae - Quarterly is the up and coming e-newsletter for job seekers, recruiters, and people who want to investigate the US job market. It provides a concise, statistically based evaluation of the current job market, compiled from information from the US Bureau of Labor Statistics and other sources to provide a clear picture in layman's terms. In addition, the newsletter is designed to provide job seekers great tips on networking, on job hunting, and how to build out their network. Currently the newsletter is being offered free of charge to individuals recording their email addresses and name at www.cvtrack.com. In addition to the newsletter, Netmap Software has announced an updated version of their flagship product, CVTracker v.1.9.5 and it's availability on the internet. This software package contains considerably substantial benefits for job seekers who need to organize their contact bases and build a network without compromising information gathering. Instead of managing data and records, the job seeker will have the ability to make meaningful contacts and leverage them for landing a new job. The software has undergone rigorous testing from a variety of users with exceptional value-add for those who are able to take advantage of some of the updated features it offers. Measuring progress during a job search is difficult, letting CVTracker do it is not.

The software has been announced for $79.99 for CVTracker Gold, with a Lite version at $29.99. More importantly, with the recent influx of individuals returning to the market and job creation on the rise (at least in terms of payroll surveys), there is a substantial need for job seekers to start taking advantage of their networks and contacts and find a job that is appropriate.

Recent statistics from the Bureau of Labor Statistics show the national unemployment rate relatively stable at 5.7%, a change of .1% from the previous month. The unexpected creation of payroll jobs of over 308,000 has impacted the market tremendously - both in terms of further support in the stock market as well as building job seeker confidence. This is the time to move towards finding that new opportunity, and to do that faster, more efficiently requires a strong contact management tool designed specifically for job seekers.

The Curriculum Vitae - Quarterly reviews many of the details necessary for job seekers to understand the state of the job market in their region of the country or more specifically in terms of the multiple survey types that are released by the Department of Labor. Economists are predicting that some jobs will be returning, but it is important to note that there is a +/- 390,000 variation range for figures that come out month-to-month. The only way to validate job recovery is over an extended time period, and this has not yet occurred.

CVTracker provides much of what the job seeker needs to use personal networking in their job campaign and allows data storage, management, and analytics on how well the job seeker is conducting their search. This functionality remains unique in today's selection of contact management tools.
