Introducing a new Front Page, Replies, and Following

Psst, we're launching on Product Hunt today. Product Hunt is a directory of new products where the community can vote on their favorites. It's also a great opportunity for us to get more visibility for read.cv. Check out our post on Product Hunt and leave a review if you have the time 🥰


Hey friends, it's been a couple months since we announced Pages, our self publishing tool which empowers you to create in depth case studies right in the context of your profile. Today we're excited to announce our biggest feature release to date, inspired by the amazing content we've seen published by the community — a new Front Page, Private Replies, and Following.

Front Page

The first thing you'll see when you log onto read.cv is a new Front Page which celebrates the most interesting pages, projects, and work experiences from around the community. We were inspired to build a community hub after discovering so many amazing pages and profiles and wanted a place to distribute the best stuff more widely.

Private Replies

We'd been trying to figure out what the best feedback mechanism was for people to connect with one another. Likes and comments were the obvious choice but it felt wrong to allow anyone to leave a blemish on a profile you're using to apply for jobs. Instead we landed on a private feedback model, where anyone can kickstart a conversation by replying to an experience, page, or status update.

Following

Following allows you to keep up to date with friends and collaborators. Don't worry, we don't display any follower or following counts on your profile. Check out the followers tab to view updates from everyone you follow.
