By leveraging Pongo Resume’s Interview Tips and its 40+ interactive audio/visual training modules, job seekers can now learn the necessary skills to handle the toughest interviews and help them stand out among the crowded competition—from the first phone screen, to frequently asked interview questions, and how to cope with unskilled interviewers.

Pongo provides a full spectrum of job-related services and tools that help users create, distribute, organize, and track their resume and cover letter activity.
