Yes, this means resumes (and other documents) added to Newton now appear exactly how they were intended to look. No more text previews. We’ve been experimenting with this technology for over a year and we’ve developed a stable feature that won’t compromise Newton’s speed. We know that all the people that use Newton, internal recruiters, hiring managers, human resource pros, and executives, are going to love it.
This is just one of over 20 new enhancements we’ve made to the platform. This release sets the stage for what’s to come this year – lot’s of new features and functionality!
