NEW YORK, Feb. 20 /PRNewswire/ -- HotJobs.com Ltd. announces the addition
of job postings from staffing firms and executive recruiters to its flagship
consumer Web site, HotJobs.com. The firm also introduces two new channels,
one for temporary workers and one for contractual technology workers.
Unlike job searches on other recruitment sites, opportunity seekers on
HotJobs.com will have the power to choose whether they want to see job
listings from HotJobs.com's over 9,100 member companies, from staffing firms,
or from both. Jobs posted by staffing firms will be clearly marked as such,
giving opportunity seekers more control when conducting a job search or
applying for a job using HotJobs.com. And, unlike other job boards, staffing
agencies and executive recruiters are not able to search HotJobs.com's resume
database.
"HotJobs wanted to be able to give job seekers access to as many jobs and
resources as possible," said Richard Johnson, CEO, HotJobs.com. "We are now
providing employment opportunities from executive recruiters, yet we are doing
so in a way that allows opportunity seekers to maintain control over their job
searches and careers."
"HotJobs.com is uniquely positioned to give job seekers the best of both
worlds with access to corporate recruiters and staffing firms. Our
introduction last year of AgencyExchange, an exchange exclusively for staffing
firms, enabled us to build a solid relationship with this very important
segment of the recruiting marketplace. It also created an exchange separate
from HotJobs.com through which staffing firms can post jobs onto HotJobs.com
without being able to search the resume database," said David Carvajal, Vice
President and General Manager, Agency Exchange. "As a result, HotJobs.com is
able to offer opportunity seekers more choices and more control over their
careers."
Additionally, HotJobs.com now features two new channels -- Temp Jobs and
Tech Contract. "We realized that in this dynamic economy, many of our
opportunity seekers are looking for temporary work, while others are
highly-skilled technology professionals looking for contractual work. We're
happy to be able to have job postings targeted to this segment of our
job-seeking population," said Johnson.
With the new features now available on HotJobs.com, opportunity seekers
will benefit from more job listings and more control in their online job
seeking experience, while staffing firms posting jobs on HotJobs will benefit
from HotJobs' extensive advertising efforts. Existing HotJobs.com member
companies will continue to reap the benefits associated with being a part of
one of Internet's leading job boards, including award-winning technology,
millions of opportunity seekers, and one of the category's leading brands.
