SpringRole: Blockchain-Powered Professional Profile-Verification and Attestation

in #blockchain6 years ago

Purchasing an automobile is supposedly a sign of good tiding and prosperity. However, the problem lies in the owner’s capability of maintaining it and keeping it in good shape for long.

In the same way, the internet had opened up many avenues for us such as seeking for information and connecting with friends. While others might be chatting away with the time availed them, smarter individuals are making financial moves on the internet.

In internet-based platforms such as LinkedIn, many businesses and professionals are making connections and striving to improve on their businesses. We have heard of and witnessed cases of cyber crimes.

What many believe is that cyber crimes are limited to hacking and illegal use of intellectual property of another user. Cyber crimes have reared up their heads in many ways and profile falsification is one them.

The Problem

Given the economic downturn around the globe, many people are striving to get a paid employment by any possible means. It is no longer news that people falsify their data and pattern it to suit a given job with the hope of getting such job.

On platforms such as LinkedIn, you’re likely to come across profiles that indicate having experiences in many working scenarios. For instance, a freelance writer whose major work comes from outsourcing might claim to work on top sites such as Upwork and Fiverr.

Because there is not tool on ground, the employer has no choice other than to hire the services of such a “professional” especially if the person’s profile meets the pain point of the employer.

So the problem we have in the professional industry is the falsification of profiles by supposed professionals and because the relevant channels that could have proved the available data true or falsified is not available, the trend keeps growing.

The Solution

There is a glimmer of hope as SpringRole comes on board. SpringRole is a protocol for trust-based decentralized professional network. What this means is that the platform provided by SpringRole will authenticate each user or professional and this breeds transparency in the system.

If you’ve been into the game of falsifying your data with the aim of having an attractive profile that will bring you employers, you should desist from using SpringRole because you’ll be caught and your image dented.

The amazing thing here is that SpringRole will use the ever-efficient blockchain technology in disrupting the traditional professional market. Now, there is the opportunity for employers to verify their intending employees before they can be hired.

SpringRole is poised to integrate and partner with many institutions such as universities and other workplaces by bringing them into its platform. The work of these set of organizations is to verify and authenticate a professional’s claim.

If you claim in your profile to have a writing profile on Upwork while you don’t, Upwork will be present on SpringRole’s platform to verify your claims. So there’s relatively no gateway for you to falsify your profile any more.

How it works

SpringRole functions like other professional networks such as LinkedIn. If your interest is on writing or web development, you’re linked to other professionals within your niche. To facilitate transparency in it platform, SpringRole will validate any information you add to your profile down to the least detail.

With relevant partners such as universities and companies on ground, your profile and other information you might have attached will be verified before you can transact on SpringRole.
It is true that professional networks such as LinkedIn require you fill your time of employment in any establishment. The question is “Have they tried to verify any of your data”? The answer is likely to be NO.

SpringRole will authenticate your data and make sure you’ve supplied the right information before you can be allowed to transact on the platform.

Technology

SpringRole is using the blockchain technology for its operations. Unlike traditional professional networks that do not have measures to check and verify a professional’s profile, SpringRole will bring both companies and universities into its platform. They will verify your work experience and educational attainment claims.

For instance, if a professional had worked or is working with Upwork and Fiverr, the future or intending employer might find it hard to contact both sites to verify the professional’s work experience.

But with the blockchain technology used by SpringRole, many companies and businesses can come in and help SpringRole identify genuine professional and weed out the false ones. So before any data can be added to your profile on SpringRole’s platform, it must be verified.

Conclusion

On LinkedIn, you get to meet many professionals and there are suggestions for you to select from the list of professionals within your niche. SpringRole does so but with the extra feature of professional profile-verification and attestation.

Your earlier workplace will verify you actually worked with them (attestation) and verify that all information you supplied are correct (verification). It is after these steps that the itemized data you want added to your SpringRole profile will be added.

So if you’ve been an ardent user of LinkedIn and you want another platform to connect with professionals and businesses, I advise you use SpringRole. SpringRole is more than a professional network; it is a professional network with extra security measures such as profile-verification and attestation
