Parobook, a social network for unemployed

"Another social network? A new Facebook impersonator? Parobook, at first glance, is a clone of Facebook dyed red. To stare at the status messages of users notice a big difference. Ianthe, for example, reads: "looking for work in computer repair and maintenance." Santiago fire is technical in Malaga but is unemployed.

Parobook is a social network to help unemployed people to contact other people out of work. It takes less than a week online, has surpassed the thousand records and the load on the servers is such that the service falls are common. The creators are Carlos Ayuso, Iñigo González, José González and Ramírez Sarmiento Antuan.

They do not want to compete LinkedIn, the most popular service for promotion, but help to the unemployed do not feel alone in this struggle. " In fact, the motto of the fledgling network is "unity is strength." Drainware Systems is one of the first companies to offer work. "I need commercial information technologies", states in his state.

For the moment, nor offered work or those who seek him have to pay to use this page. Carlos Ayuso explains the project's blog that there is no profit. The reasons that have moved to create this page are the unemployed to report their situation as part of a group online and can connect with each other, to talk, discuss, and give advice to each other in a desperate situation like the present ".

One of the most care of this service that is not necessary, but advisable, to specify the job situation is that the privacy options are more clear and concise on Facebook. In fact, even lets you know who visited your profile. Although the initial success pleases Parobook makers, on the board explained that they are working on creating new zones for hanging resumes, share ideas and creation of SMEs.
