The search engine for jobs--Yeah only for 3 countries, would have been smart if I we could insert an engine our selves.

"does not install correctly on Vista Home Premium"
Version: CVitae 1.3.1
Pros
I could not install to evaluate.
Cons
Like it did for the other reviewers, this software did not install correctly on my PC running Vista Home Premium.
Summary
Based only on the failed installation, this looks like shoddy software. Use an uninstaller like Revo to get it off your system if your uninstall fails ? it created a bunch of registry entries on install. I?d recommend not bothering with this.

"Easy to build resume, capture contacts and prospects."
Version: CVitae 1.3.1
Pros
It is an easy to use all-in-one job-seeking tool which helps construct cover letters and resumes, organize contacts and store job search history. Also, it is FREE...a very good thing if you have been laid off and are on unemployment!
Cons
Spell-checker dictionary is French - does not tell how to change it to English.
Summary
A very useful tool for those in need of employment, expecially those with minimal to modest resume, letter, and job-seeking skills. Job applications, advertisements, and contacts can be kept on the computer instead of being printed and kept in a paper file.
Regarding the more personal information (age, date of birth, marital status) and the addition of a picture - these features are optional. You may skip them completely, or add them into the database but delete them from the pre-print Word CV.

"Really strang"
Version: CVitae 1.3.1
Pros
Clean interface. Simple input. Bare bones.
Cons
It asks for martial status, a photo, email, and birthday. This is the kind of information employers typically shouldn't ask you for...at least not in the USA. I noticed this program was made in France, so they may have different hiring practices...
Summary
Skip it. You can find better resume templates for Microsoft Word or OpenOffice.
