Happy New Year and Happy 2011 Recruiting

2010 was a great year for Jobvertise, we hope you had a great holiday season. However, if you are like most recruiters it's prime time to get to work! Our candidates obviously drop off towards the end of December, but now that the holidays are over job hunting starts to ramp up so you should take advantage of this time of year.

If you don't already have a Jobvertise account there's no excuse to not get going because much of the site is free. You can search resumes (with some restrictions) and post basic jobs at no charge. We do this so you can try our services without needing funding approval from anyone in your organization and can get going right away. We don't like waiting for things when we try to get work done, and probably neither do you. You can create an account at www.jobvertise.com to get started immediately. We hope that the site will work great for you and will consider the premium membership to get all the bells and whistles. But if you only want to use the free services that's ok too!

For those of you who have accounts please log in and post your jobs by clicking on "Add/Edit Jobs". This is your main control area where you can do all kinds of maintenance and keep your listings up-to-date.

And don't forget to upload your jobs to LinkedIn, Facebook, and Twitter to get extra exposure. We make it easy for you to utilize these social networking sites.

You can run some resume searches and also set up 'Resume Alerts' which will e-mail you when new resumes come in. This is a great time saver since you don't have to keep logging in to see new resumes that match your searches.  However it is important to note that you will need the Preferred Membership to actually view the resumes since they are obviously within the 21 day window and considered "fresh". Fresh resumes  are only available to premium customers (until they are over 21 days old at which time they are available to everyone).

Looking forward to another wonderful year!

The Jobvertise Team
