NORTHBOROUGH, Mass.--(Business Wire)--
Pongo Resume, the premier full-service online resume-building resource that
provides a suite of tools to help job seekers market and manage their careers,
has been named to the Inc. 5000, Inc. Magazine's annual list of the nation's
fastest-growing companies. 

Pongo placed 937th on the list, or among the top 19 percent. Among 100 software
businesses that appeared on the list, Pongo ranked 58th. 

The Inc. 5000 are ranked according to percentage of revenue growth from 2005
through 2008. To qualify, companies must have been founded and generating
revenue by the first week of 2005, and able to show four full calendar years of
sales. The companies must also be U.S.-based, privately held, for-profit, and
independent as of December 31, 2008. 

From 2005, the year after its founding, through 2008, Pongo's annual revenue
grew nearly 325 percent. The percentage growth is about twice the average of the
software businesses on the list. 

"We're more than pleased to receive such a wonderful honor," said Rodney Capron,
Jr., CEO of Pongo Resume. "It's a testament to the strength of Pongo's business
model and the hard work of our team. And it motivates us even further to provide
the best job-search and career management tools and advice to our customers." 

"Savvy trend spotters and those who invest in private companies know that the
Inc. 5000 is the best place to find out about young companies that are achieving
success through a wide variety of unprecedented business models, as well as
older private companies that are still expanding at an impressive rate," said
Inc. 5000 project manager Jim Melloan in a statement released by Inc. Magazine.
"That's why our list is so eagerly anticipated every year."
