.concept Title: Idea:

Web 2.0 enables more and more flexible, wide and open information sharing, improving networking potentialities and making easier to discover your job field. Our idea arises from the need to develop a new professional profile concept closer to the new job seeking dynamics and improvement of the experiential path.

Keywords: dynamic profile, multiple views, web based, multiplatform, career, job, sharing


What is it? The concept is an evolution of the CV idea, enabling users to dynamically manage their profiles. Each user profile can be filtered depending on the recipient (e.g. project leaders, companies, recruiters) and on the obsolescence of information, to create a specific profile context. It is a webbased multi-platform service which use the ITSME metaphor: Venues & Stories. In particular, every professional and private life experience will be represented by a specific venue sharable with the others. The venue's strongest potentiality is the possibility for the followers to see the profile's evolution. Our concept originates as a software, web-based application, operable on PCs, MACs, Linux, Smart phones...but we can also think about a dedicated device for it (for ex. Poken).


How does it works? –

Registration (also for guests) • Personal data • Username and password (for Login) • Contacts • Role (between recruiter, jobseeker, both) [facultative]

Download software • Choose the right software version for your OS

Create a shared profile and manage your personal database: •General informations •Specific informations (related to the profession) •Collateral informations (related to hobbies, collateral skills...) •Customizable interface •Manual and automatic tagging to index own informations

Multiple profile views • General filtered visibility: choose the elements you want to share with everybody • Specific filtered visibility: create different profiles for specific addresses


– Research • people/companies • tag

- Alerting •Ticker to notify profile changes and validate informations*. •Profile tracking between users

– Constant and automatic information refresh Automatic synchronization between nicetomITSME desktop and web databases.

– Interoperability (pcs, macs, mobile devices): Multiplatform: desktop program usable and linkable to web service and different devices

– *Certification system for published information


Certification system for published information • Official validation • Peer to peer validation: constant feedback between users • Auto certification


What's the added value of nicetomITSME? The only way to use our service is to put ITSME in a network of relationships, in particular in the framework of job seeking. The success and diffusion of services like "NICETOMitsme" can encourage the use of the ITSME OS metaphor.


Scenario Mobile Lorenzo is 25 years old and works in a fashion store. He loves sport, cinema, comics and literature. After work, he decides to go to the cinema.


He goes to see a film with other friends. They choose an Almodovar’s movie called “Los Abrazos Rotos”.


During the break, Lorenzo has some time to spend‌


He takes his Nokia N95 and opens NICETOMitsme application to quickly update his profile.


Once the application is launched, he selects the “Leisure time� venue (about personal interests)


There are no voices in the Leisure time venue because during the day there were no updates.

Lorenzo selects the “Cinema field� to enter the film he is viewing


He types the film title and author‌

‌ and publish it!


He can immediately see what he has typed.

And then he goes to the “book venue�.


He checks the updates about books read during the last months and he notices that he hasn’t inserted the last one.

He pushes the button to insert a new voice in the venue.


He inserts the informations about the book‌

‌and then he publish it!



Scenario Workstation Marta is an Interior Design student at Polimi. Using “itsme� she realizes that NICETOMitsme could be useful to improve her career


She is working with itsme and she decides to choice some files to share through NICETOMitsme and selects them. Then she clicks on NICETOMitsme button to update her yet existing profile.


Now she wants to see her updated profile on NICETOMitsme, so she opens the web application.


She opens NICETOMitsme. Some files yet uploaded are in the “Limbo� and she puts them in the right venues.


She comes back to “itsme� and now she can see the files shared on NICETOMitsme that are underlined.


Sarvo works at CromaStudio, a graphic-design studio near Milano. He is looking for someone who can work on a project for a couple of months.

While browsing on the web he finds an innovative web service able to create a network about personal/professional profile. The new web service is NICETOMitsme.


The home page shows the web-service mission and invite visitors to log-in or register to use it. Sarvo decides to sign up.


The registration form shows two different ways to sign up: first form for people, second one for companies/industries. He chooses the companies form.

Between the fields there is one facultative and shows to him three different possibilities: • Looking for a job • Offering a job • Both of them He selects “Offering a job”


Once he registered, he finds a page with an example about the research that he can do and a button to download the desktop software at the bottom.

He immediately tries to find the right people for his project and inserts some keywords.


NICETOMitsme shows two results for the research. A young girl who is studying and an older man who teaches at the university.


He prefers the young girl because she is probably more interested for a two months work.

As he clicks on the button to have the permission to see the extended profile, a confirmation window appears.


Marta is working with “itsme�.

She opens NICETOMitsme and sees a notification for a new message. She clicks on it.


She opens the mail and see that is sent from another NICETOMitsme member.


It’s a new request for her profile. She notices that the request is from a company.

She gives the permission to access to her profile


Now she has to choose the venue and the information to show to CromaStudio because momentarily is available only the general profile.

After creating a new profile, she links it to CromaStudio.


And now….. Good luck!!!
