VetNurse.co.uk has today launched VetNurse Profiles, where veterinary nurses can display and share their career details with prospective employers and others in the profession with shared interests.

VetNurse Profiles offer the same sort of features you find on external social networks like Linkedin and Facebook, but in a professional format designed specially for the veterinary profession.

They've been developed to help veterinary job seekers, locums and forum contributors in particular:

VETERINARY JOB SEEKERS
VetNurse Profiles have been designed to help you create what is essentially a polished CV. You can include details of where you qualified, which advanced qualifications you hold, your clinical interests, and your work experience.

Importantly, VetNurse Profiles have also been integrated within VetNurse Jobs. So now, when you respond to a job advert by clicking the email address given in the contact details, your email program will open a new message containing a link to your VetNurse Profile, ready to send to the advertiser.

VETERINARY LOCUMS
VetNurse Profiles are also integrated within the VetNurse Locum Map, making them a great way to advertise your skillset to hiring practices.

VETNURSE FORUM CONTRIBUTORS
Having a good profile displayed really helps build a sense of connection with other members. Perhaps more importantly, though, they help give your words context. When reading a post, it's so helpful to know when the author qualified, where, and what makes them tick.

Ultimately, though, VetNurse Profiles are for anyone and everyone who wants to be better connected with others in the profession, and the plan is to develop more and more features which help do precisely that.

To create your VetNurse Profile, visit the site, click ‘My Account’, then ‘View My Profile’ and add your details to the page. Here's one I prepared earlier (obviously the qualifications and education are there for example only).

VetNurse Profiles are only visible to logged in members of VetNurse.co.uk.
