NelsonJobs Launches Candidate-Friendly Job Search Portal.


Job-Finding Portal Challenges the Paradigm About What a Job Board Should Be

SONOMA, Calif. -- Flipping the paradigm of what a job board should be, NelsonJobs.com has re-launched itself as an employee-friendly job finding portal with a host of new features to help seekers organize and expedite their job search experience -- as well as the guarantee that a job placement expert at NelsonJobs will contact each candidate by email or phone within 48 hours.

Online job boards are typically optimized for employer job listings -- boasting the sheer number of jobs listed but not necessarily helping job seekers in their quest to find work. NelsonJobs.com, by contrast, is a comprehensive 'job-finding portal' designed specifically to assist job seekers in researching, selecting and following up with their job queries to make the overall job search a pleasant and gratifying grat·i·fy

 experience. Special 'job-finding' features of NelsonJobs.com include:

* Automatic job search agents to notify job seekers about the newest jobs that fit their profile

* An online 'shopping cart' to organize job leads

* Online tracking system and tools to help candidates with follow-up efforts

* Career search advice including professional resume-writing, interviewing and job search tips

* Salary guidelines and salary negotiation advice

* Free subscription to NelsonJobs Newsletter and links to job resources

* Online calculator to compute the distance from one's home to the job being applied for

* Personal follow up from NelsonJobs placement experts and access to speak live to a member of the NelsonJobs Client Services Team

"Ask any job seeker what their frustrations are with the current crop of online job boards like Monster and CareerBuilder and they'll tell you that it's a chaotic and lonely process," explained Craig Nelson, EVP EVP Executive Vice President

 of Staffing for the Nelson Family of Companies. "You just send your resume out into cyberspace and hope for a call-back, and that's not very encouraging when you are out of work. So the new NelsonJobs.com has been re-designed with the job seeker in mind -- giving them organization tools and career advice. And most important, every job seeker receives personal follow up from one of Nelson's job placement experts. That human touch can make a big difference between someone having a good job search experience or a bad one."
