I'm interested in the stage of voting. Can an worker collude and buy votes in his favor to confirm certain skills? If yes - how to deal with it?

Very good point. The referencing tool integrates seamlessly into the hiring process. So the reference and skills data is collected in real job applications by previous managers. The reference scores highly by providing real examples of their work and the amount of detail.

The upvoting functionality exists within the hiring network. Companies in that pay CV tokens to interact with the worker and see their full profile will be given the option to upvote after interviewing or interacting with them. Hiring companies will be identity checked (Civic or Uport) just as referees will and the network validators will be looking out for this behaviour. There is an infographic on the site to explain how it fits together: https://rblock.co/

Does that make sense?

How many collected on Pre-Sale? Pre-sale ends 20 November or later? How many minimal investment on PRE-SALE?

We have over 350 ETH committed so far. We will be extending the pre-sale until we reach our pre-sale allocation. If you are a company or manager that hires technical staff and you're interested in the contributing - get in touch: [email protected] or via the site: https://rblock.co/

Why you need blockchain here? Maybe simple make your system without blockchain?

Blockchain is a great way to store and prove your digital assets. We see skills and experience as no different. There have been many good whitepapers about Blockchain for prove of digital assets, one of my favourites is BitFury's - http://[Suspicious link removed]/1SzMmyo.

The second and arguably more important factor is the built-in anonymity it brings. We are trying to remove data abuse in hiring. Blockchain provides a network in which companies and workers can interact anonymously, purely based on proven skills. This has another very worthy benefit in destroying prejudice. In the R_Block network, it won't matter what university you went to, or where you come from. Companies will evaluate you purely based on your skills.

Thank you for your question. For the product to work we need to make sure the references, certification, etc are credible. We are taking advantage of Blockchain's ability immutable so that if there are abuses it can be clearly identified.

Why you need tokens? What about functions of tokens? Why price of tokens must increase?

Good point. The token has 2 key utilities in the ecosystem.

1. One of the reasons for the 50% decline in referencing is the lack of incentive to provide detailed information. The R_Block ecosystem is powered by the referencing tool we have built, this collects data from real job applications. When a company pays CV tokens to conduct a reference, up to 50% of this fee is rewarded back to the referee. The network validators score the reference on how factual and detailed the data is. Then award the percentage of the fee earnt. The remaining 50% of the transaction fee is used for our buyback scheme.

2. Within the tech sector, we face another key issue. Workers get bombarded with approaches from recruiters whilst not looking for jobs so there's no incentive for workers to interact. There's frustration that there's no reward for time spent interacting and often Cv's and contact data is shared to no end. In the R_Block ecosystem, workers choose for their skills to become searchable. Companies search the network for profiles with matching skills then pay the worker in CV tokens to interact and reveal their full profile.

We've seen sites like Hired.com rise in popularity which empower the worker. R_Block goes one step further to empowering the worker by making sure they are paid for their time interacting.

how will the system deal with the purchased references? And if a person specifically leave a negative reference because of his personal non-involvement?
Great point! Social hacking is an extremely important concern that needs to be dealt with. Concerning your first question, in the same way people could lie about their qualifications on Linkedin but don't. Why? Because other people on the site could find out and if they do it would have a detrimental effect on your career. This is the beauty of using the Blockchain. Given that your reference will be left on the blockchain forever it would be against your interest to lie.

On your second question, I'm not sure if I have understood you correctly but I take it that you're raising the concern of people giving negatived biased references due to personal reasons. Ultimate completely eliminating personal biases is impossible but this problem can be mitigated in three ways. First, through people selecting their referees, second people having multiple reference sources and lastly the fact that you have access to your references.

Here is a link to our video explaining the concept:
