JobeeHive is beautiful and useful

Recently, I was invited to JobeeHive.com (www.jobeehive.com) which is in private ALPHA yet. For those of you who haven't heard of JobeeHive - JobeeHive is a unique Web 2.0 platform that brings professional networking services together with career information on companies and industries. The site is simply impressive. What makes it impressive is its freshness, its usefulness and its simplicity. Ofcourse, saying all this it is much more innovative than other professional social networking sites that I have seen.

Being a graphic designer myself, I like the look and feel of JobeeHive. The colors chosen are lively, fresh and good for a social network. I particularly like the logo as well, which is bold and honest.

Coming to the usefulness, JobeeHive hosts useful information about companies, taken directly from employees. I went through the employee feedbacks, what they call it as JobeeHive Employer Buzz (http://www.jobeehive.com/survey/explore) and it is an effective way to understand culture, work, salaries, & interview aspects of companies. For sure, this information is not available easily elsewhere and also it is very useful for job seekers. Information is collected online at: http://www.jobeehive.com/survey/wizard

Professional networking features are cool and slowly being upgraded. I think it is the networking behaviour of JobeeHive that makes people come back again and again and make the platform more useful for everyone. This happens because JobeeHive not only gives static information but also dynamically connects the right knowledge providers to knowledge seekers through many ways.

It will be interesting to see how JobeeHive grows. It is already generating a buzz and getting thousands of hits.
Great work JobeeHive!
