splinter.me is a platform for professionals and employers that uses the benefits of big data and social recruiting.
It aggregates and analyses information from 15+ online platforms in order to create 360 degrees profile, that stands at the basis of matchmaking between talents and work opportunities.
We are a startup in public beta, with expected official launch by the end of 2013. We have made it so far by bootstrapping and with the help of a great angel investor. We are currently looking for seed investment.
splinter.me is now part of SoftLayer's Catalyst Startup Program

There are plenty of startups out there trying to revolutionize the job-seeking or hiring process, from TalentBin and Path.to to Silp, Somewhere and of course, in its own way, LinkedIn. But there may still be space for more.
Splinter.me will certainly be hoping so. Currently in beta, the Egyptian-Romanian-Belgian startup (welcome to the EMEA region) is trying its own data-centric spin on the subject. Splinter.me essentially wants to replace the resume with information automatically pulled in from the job-seeker’s social networks and any other platforms where information about them may reside.

Based on that information, Splinter.ME hopes to provide optimized search results for recruiters because it knows much more about you than your normal CV would know.
