subject: Networking Job Seekers For 100k+ Jobs [print this page] JobConcierge is inviting jobseekers to connect on its social networks to keep up to date on the newest job advice and strategies, and to network with recruiters and other job seekers. Social media continues to play an increasingly important role in the job market as the use of Twitter, LinkedIn, FaceBook and other networking sites grow. The recruiting industry has changed dramatically from a year ago, as jobseekers now have the upper hand in terms of the wealth of information and advice available online.
"One of the factors that sets us apart from other jobsites is the number of different channels we use to interact and share information with jobseekers. Whether you follow our tweets (http://twitter.com/jobconcierge) along with our base of over 10,000 followers, interact with our 1,000+ members on the JobConcierge FaceBook group (http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=140213070625), follow our job advice bookmarks on StumbleUpon or just receive periodic newsletters from us, there are plenty of opportunities to share and network with others on JobConcierge. We're proud that JobConcierge is one of the few jobsites that actually encourages people to interact with one another," says Jason Lee, JobConcierge.com founder.
"All the networks, as well as the information on our website, are free so we definitely encourage jobseekers to check out the individual JobConcierge social networks and see which ones they're most interested in joining. As an added benefit, we offer our members as well as those who are connected with us on social media special benefits, invitations and discounts; they've received access to our Job Fair Database (http://www.jobconcierge.com/job-fairs) and Best Job Sites (http://www.jobconcierge.com/best-industry-job-boards) list weeks before the general public and have been able to participate in promotions and sweepstakes."
"The average jobseeker spends 50 hours each month in front of the computer searching through the major online job boards. What people don't realize is that they're finding the same jobs that everyone else has already found and wondering why their search isn't going anywhere. We found that by only using the major job boards, many job searchers were missing as much as half the jobs out there relevant to them. We're proud to offer the JobConcierge job search optimization service that'll put more people back on track towards finding the careers of their dreams." says Jason Lee, JobConcierge.com founder.
By focusing on job search optimization, JobConcierge helps jobseekers widen their job searches and increase their chances of finding the right jobs in less time. JobConcierge is a human-powered job search service where real people search through over 300 job boards and submit applications.
