Viewing topic: New VisaRus site

It's 'that time of year again', when schools need teachers more than ever.

Which is an opportune moment to launch the latest version of VisaRus, at http://www.visarus.co.uk.

Finally, after years (literally) of promising, many of the features that everyone was asking for are almost here, plus a few that nobody asked for

The new site, which is currently being tested at a secret location in the Swiss Alps will have:

* Improved school listings with map locations (cool!)

* Individual user profiles, which double as online resumes and can be downloaded and saved in Microsoft Word (with a smart, tidy layout - also very cool!)

* A much-improved profile management page to support the above feature

* Improved jobs section, with online application (at last!)

* Jobseekers section, where you can advertise yourself to schools

* Improvements to VRpm and forum

* EFL classroom excercise maker

* School ratings top 5 and worst 5 schools

Plus a few other bits and pieces that might get added at the last minute.

I plan to have it all up and running this Friday night, if all goes well. There will be the obligatory newsletter to tell everyone about it anyway.

In the meantime, if anyone would like a sneak preview, send me a PM and I'll give you a link to the test site - testers welcome.
