Listen to Joel Cheesman’s podcast with HotJobs’ Dan Finnigan and you’ll hear an interesting take on what is around the corner for job seekers who want relevancy to spice up their search experience.
HotJobs’ new strategy is very interesting but raises a number of questions. For example, If Merrill Lynch favor Monster.com as their job board of choice – I think that is fair to say - how would HotJobs win their business when the potential exists to have their postings returned in the context of today’s news of a three million dollar award against them for defaming a fired employee? Of course, this would not be just a problem for HotJobs and Merrill Lynch alone, but any job board and advertiser that decided they wanted to “enrich” the candidate experience.
Just a thought.
Unfortunately, when I migrated everything over from the original WordPress blog to the Blogversity domain the comments for June ‘06 got lost in the shuffle. Bummer.
I guess one day I’ll patiently sit and copy the comments for this post over from the original to this spot, maybe not. In the meantime, if you want to read the comments - or leave one yourself - click here for a quick flash of seamless integration.
