One motivations for e-portfolios is to build credentials to assist employment prospects. It helps automate the job search. It's worth watching software that apporoaches this from the other end, too. "Checking references.  That can be done now online by companies like SkillSurvey.com...Bringing candidates in for interviews can also be eliminated with tools like Hirevue.com, who conduct standardized, video interviews that are scored and that employers can then review on their own time.  HireIQ.com moves the interview process to automated telephone interviews that are taped and assessed for personality and other attributes... Vendors like salary.com or payscale.com can tell you what market wages are for jobs like yours in your community..." The question, though, isn't "Is this good?" The question is, "How can we make this better?"
