“Do you have a LinkedIn profile?”- Most likely, you will get this question if you are applying for any job because LinkedIn has been serving as an excellent platform to manage your professional identity for more than a decade. Not only job seekers but also it is used by a large number of businesses/companies to identify and hire talented people for them. LinkedIn has more than 500 million members worldwide, and the website is available in more than 20 languages. Plus, LinkedIn is ranked in the “Top 20 Popular websites” by the Alexa Internet ranking system.

What makes LinkedIn very special or unique? You will get this question in your mind if you are not a member of LinkedIn or don’t know how it works. First, the user creates an account on the platform and submits his photo, work history, educational qualification and other career-related information. Then, the user starts building connections which are relevant to his/her career. For example, let’s assume that John worked in a fictional company named SoftX and he is looking for a new job. He can send an invite to his colleagues or supervisor of SoftX so that he can add them to his connections. Even he can request them to provide feedback about him which will improve the credibility of his profile. So, an employer will be able to get a quick reference check on a candidate by using the LinkedIn platform.

Will LinkedIn be able to make such a huge revenue without the members? No. In fact, the members of are providing valuable information about their career to LinkedIn at free of cost. And, LinkedIn is making a profit by selling those data to recruiting agencies. Does the user get anything in return for sharing their valuable data? No. The user doesn’t get any reward for creating their profile. Is LinkedIn the best option to do background/ reference check on any candidate? No. Because, there is no guarantee that the data available on the user’s profile is 100% correct as there is a chance of fake information also.

SpringRole aims to build a trustworthy and secure network to connect the job seekers and employers, and it makes sure that all the professional profiles available on that platform are 100% genuine. It saves a lot of money for the employers they generally spend to do the exhaustive background check of the candidates. How? It offers five different types of attestations in its platform as given below:

  1. Skill Endorsement
  2. Education Qualification
  3. Work Experience
  4. Additional courses
  5. Other

Unlike LinkedIn, SpringRole platform is not available at free of cost. Instead, the whole platform is driven by the SPRING tokens which will be used as the main payment option to complete any transaction. For example, if an attester ( individual, company, university etc.) verifies the authenticity of the candidate’s claim about a skill, certification, work experience etc., then they will be rewarded with SPRING tokens. As the platform is based on the blockchain technology, the attestation information will be recorded on the blockchain which will be available forever.
