Jeff Berger. The KODA Podcast

Savvy

What do You Aspire to Be?

"It's not about who you know, it's about who you are. KODA is all about your personal quest to find the right opportunities for you." - Jeff Berger

Jeff Berger

Welcome to an Online Savvy Channel podcast on TotalPicture Radio with Peter Clayton Reporting. Joining me today is Jeff Berger, Co-Founder and CEO of KODA, based in San Francisco, CA. I met Jeff at the recent Social Recruiting Summit in New York -- KODA provides an interesting platform for connecting universities, young professionals, and companies.

According to their web site, KODA launched its beta site on May 27, 2009. The initial release included a platform that allows emerging talent and smart companies to go beyond the resume or traditional job posting. More professional than Facebook but more personal than LinkedIn, KODA showcases talent profiles and employer profiles that allow both sides of the hiring equation to get to know each other.

Since then, KODA has continued to evolve and launch new features, including:

An Explorer page to help you find new jobs and internships, popular companies, non-profits, and even jobs that you never imagined existed
Easy sharing of any page of KODA via Facebook & Twitter
A simple way to download your profile in PDF format for emailing or applying to jobs
Compatibility with international locations, which you can now add to your profile's "Locations of Interest"
Smarter logic to suggest companies that are likely to be right for you as you explore KODA
