New Dutch interface : iStockCV translated into Dutch

netherlands-flag

We are glad to announce that from now on, we support Dutch language.

Here in detail, the web pages that have been translated (95% of them) :

- All internal web pages, that is, all pages after signing in (dashboard, profile, jobs, network, messages, settings, preferences etc.)

- The home pages

- The sign up process

- Your email notifications

- Billing process pages

The 5% remainging pages that have not been translated (yet) correspond to :

- the FAQ pages

- the Demo pages

- the info pages (contact us, about us, terms etc.)

- the Facebook application (that actually remains in English only)

Of course, they are still available in French and English.

Today we are going to focus our attention on the Spanish translation. We aim to roll it out on February 1st (going to be tough though :)

 

If you want to help us to (1) review the Dutch translation and (2) translate the remaining pages : that would be awesome. We have already received a great help, I hope that will continue!

Last but not least, thanks a lot @Michael for his incommensurable help,

David.

“David Verbustel est le fondateur de iStockCV, une plate-forme en ligne (réseau social) destinée au recrutement. Il témoigne des changements profonds à l’oeuvre dans la relation entre candidats et futurs employeurs, à l’aune de la guerre des talents et des aspirations de la nouvelle génération. Les plates-formes classiques d’offres d’emploi et de demandes de jobs sur internet s’avèrent de moins en moins efficaces.”

Short story about Tokbox and iStockCV collaboration:

Tokbox is the tool that we have added on our platform iStockCV and is currently developed in Silicon Valley (California).

Ron Hose founded TokBox around the principle that video communications should be as easy as possible, and available wherever people want to communicate. Tokbox is backed by impressive investors : Bain Capital Ventures, Sequoia Capital et Youniversity Ventures (one of the founders of YouTube, Jawed Karim).

We warmly thank Deidre Caldbeck (VP of Business Development), Melih (developer) and Damon (community Evangelis) for the collaboration with iStockCV team. Great support guys!

In 2009, we will continue to collaborate with Tokbox team for a better customization. We invite you to test it and send us all your comments.
Tokbox could also be used independently of iStockCV. We trully believe that video conversation is part of the future of the web — we invite you to join now and use it with your relations.
