CVPROOF: SECURING JOB'S CREDENTIALS

INTRODUCTION

CVproof is the ultimate Career Credentials Validation platform Leveraging the blockchain technology to Let out 100% transparency and reliability to the global job market. Working as a next job permit or 'Laissez-passer', CVproof allows companies to easily verify - and in a cost-effective way - whether an applicant holds the validated career credentials needed for the role. It is the first digital CV platform to guarantee full integrity around the credentials at each major career milestone.

WHAT DOES CVPROOF DELIVER?

CVproof.com is leveraging blockchain technology to develop a platform enabling notarization of CV credentials. In other words CV’s and all type of credentials (Assessment, medical records, training…), from any industry and from any country will be digitally validated and authenticated in a seamless process. Our core business will enable CVproof mid-term to provide other related services such as sourcing and job posting.

This validation proof is as a green light “laisser-passer” for quality applications. Our mission is therefore to provide a legitimate validation using indisputable secure online tools connecting CV holders to the authentic credential issuers for blockchain notarized validation.

Credentials refer to diploma, certificate, assessment, reference, work certificate, publication, score, medical certificate, criminal record, proof of training, others.

HOW DOES CVPROOF WORK?

✔️ An Issuer can be sent a request on CVproof to validate a previously issued credential. The Issuer (or accredited validator by the issuer) will validate the credential. A career credential can be a - but not limited to - diploma, certificate, work-experience, publication, reference, assessment, etc.

✔️ CVproof can produce on demand an indisputable proof of notarized validation duly stored in the blockchain.

✔️ The CV Holder does not need to provide the original documents, as the proof-of-validation constitutes intrinsically a proof of authenticity of the credential.

✔️ The Issuer will be awarded INK tokens for his validation of the credential on CVproof.

WHAT MAKES THE CVPROOF PLATFORM UNIQUE?

CVproof.com is not only inventing a trustworthy career validation process, it is also proposing a new business model that incentivizes all actors taking part in the validation and/or in the sourcing process through a revenue sharing mechanism. For this purpose, we have designed a genuine ecosystem enabling users to access and offer services (validation, CV editing, job postings, ads, sourcing, blogs etc) for which they will pay and/or receive a remuneration in INK tokens. All transactions occurring on CVproof platform will be fuelled by the INK token.

WHAT IS THE CVPROOF ECO-SYSTEM?

CVproof will offer a business model that incentivizes all actors taking part in the validation and or in the sourcing process thru a revenue sharing mechanism. For this purpose, we have designed a genuine ecosystem enabling users to access and create / offer services for which they will pay and or receive a remuneration in i.n.k token.

INK TOKEN MONETIZATION

Crypto currencies don’t have micro-transaction limitation as this is the case with credit cards! On platforms such as CVproof, using smart contract technologies for handling crypto-currency, there is no need for 2 parties to open, check, and close respective wallets to conduct a transaction. The latter is monitored automatically by a secure-software in the back-end, and is seamless to both parties. The potential for creating sophisticated rules and attractive revenue sharing mechanism is endless.

➖WHY IS CVPROOF CREATING ITS OWN CRYPTO-ASSET?➖
Any activity within the CVproof’s ecosystem between two parties (individuals and entities) is a transaction. For example, a university (A) validating (B)’s diploma on the platform is a transaction that forms part of a service.
The Incentive Notarized Kerosene (INK) Tokens will be used to propel services within the CVproof ecosystem.
CVproof’s token ecosystem will create an innovative revenue sharing paradigm by unlocking monetization in the job market. This will be a key factor in successfully rolling out CVproof’s commercial strategy as:

✔️ Data owners and service providers will receive a fair share of the value created in this new economy powered by CVproof

✔️ Innovative incentives to use the platform will be offered to all stakeholders (employers, head-hunters, validators, candidates)

✔️ Credentials validation and authentication will be the first services made available by CVproof on its platform. Other services such as job application, job advertising and sourcing will rapidly follow. Most importantly CVproof will enable its users to create and sell new services on its platform (consulting, CV design, etc) creating a fully-fledged ecosystem.

CVproof will earn a commission fee on all services transacted on the platform (validation, authentication, CV editing, job postings, ads, sourcing, post, new services). The fee % will vary according to the type of service.

➖EARNING INK TOKENS➖
Services on CVproof will be settled with INK tokens and not with fiat currency. The price in INK for will be set by the user providing the service, however CVproof will define a price range (min/max) for the core services.

By performing validation
The credentials owner will pay the validator his/her fees in INK. CVproof will set a floor and cap for the price of this service, enabling the validator to fix the price within the predefined range.

By receiving job applications thru CVproof platform
Job applicants will pay the recruitment agencies and or the employer an application fee in INK. CVproof will set a floor and cap for the price of the job application, enabling the recruiter to fix the price within the predefined range.

By being sourced as a candidate for a job
Recruiters will pay candidates an interview fee in INK. CVproof will set a floor and cap for the interview fee, enabling the candidate to fix the price within the predefined range.

By publishing compelling news feed
Users will pay a fee to access and read news feed posted by other users. The fee will be defined by the data owner.

By creating new services including selling expertise
Users will be able to create a range of new services and sell them on the platform, receiving remuneration in INK. Price for those services will be set by the users.

➖WHY WILL INK TOKEN VALUE INCREASE OVER TIME?➖
As the user base expands, demand for CVproof’s products and services will grow. This will increase the INK demand over time. In addition, the variety of services offered on the platform will lead to increasing volumes of transactions.
As the supply of tokens is capped to the initial tokens created, the increase in demand and transactions will drive the INK value upwards.

✔️ We believe our product addresses an unmet need in a sizeable market and offers a cost effective and technically robust solution
✔️ We offer a 50% discount during the presale to accredited investors and during the public sale we will offer early birds up to 25% discount
✔️ As part of its ambitious user acquisition strategy, CVproof will incentivize companies, recruitment agencies and candidates by granting them INK tokens for the adoption of services. This will ensure an initial level of transactions on the platform, as well as provide liquidity to the INK token almost from day 1 of operations. These Incentive Tokens will be restricted for use only on the CVproof platform under the form of a discount rather than a freely tradeable token. CVproof will acquire the incentive tokens by purchasing them from ICO token holders (either directly or on exchanges).

This commercial strategy will not only boost user acquisition but will also support the INK token price. In other words, CVproof will use part of the token sale funds to develop the platform’s transactions and also to provide liquidity to the INK token.
