Ask HN: What do you think of my idea to help create resumes and find jobs?

I have an idea and would like to gauge how much interest there is in using it. I'm interested in whether or not you'd use it and general feedback about the idea.

Here is the description:

Our service lets you manage everything typically associated with a resume including work experience, education and skills built up over your entire career and it’s all only visible to you. With no limit on the amount of information stored, you have the freedom to keep track of more career history than a typical 1-page resume would allow. You can easily categorize your work experience with tags to quickly create custom resumes, apply any of the several attractive styles and export the file to PDF. The application provides analytics and scoring to help you improve the quality of your resume. If you are currently looking for a new job, we can help connect you with jobs for which you’d be a good fit based on all your career history and even periodically introduce you to recruiters.

I am trying to capture as much information as I can and have set up a really basic survey. It takes about 5 minutes to complete. I'd really appreciate any responses in the survey but appreciate comments here on HN as well.
