Locate Jobs Network Rolls Out Five Niche Job Boards

The Locate Jobs Network announced the launch of its first set of multiple vertical job search websites, supplying targeted job seeker traffic and cost-effective job posts in the environmental, NICU, paralegal, logistics, and aerospace industries.

Network co-founder Michael Wist explained, “As we’ve stated previously, we believe that niche job boards offer a value level that simply cannot be achieved with a one-site-fits-all job board approach. Our sites are designed to generate highly targeted traffic, specific to a particular type of job, industry or geographic location. By rigidly maintaining such a tight focus, we filter out much of the superfluous and passive traffic that many larger job boards deliver.”

The niche approach to job boards and online job search portals is nothing new, but the Locate Jobs Network takes a novel approach to their job posting rates. Rather than charging a premium, rates to post jobs on the Locate Jobs Network are significantly cheaper than almost every other job board. This approach is designed to attract initial job posts, but is also an acknowledgement of the value that employer-provided content represents for all job boards. Locate Jobs Network recognizes the mutually beneficial relationship that is inherently created when hiring agents post their jobs and content to niche job boards.

“Our model is designed to attract active job seekers who know exactly what types of jobs they want,” said Locate Jobs Network co-founder Matthew Blevins. “Visitors to our sites are not typically window shopping for their next career opportunity and, as a result, we are delivering maximum value to the employers, recruiters and advertisers who choose to market their jobs and their services through our network of niche job boards. Job seekers who find our sites are far more likely to be qualified candidates and, as a result, more likely to contact an employer or recruiter with a resume.”

LocateAerospaceJobs.com is a job site that is dedicated to aerospace industry jobs and employment categories ranging from aircraft mechanic jobs to quality control jobs. Job posting rates are significantly below the standard for this highly competitive industry.

LocateParalegalJobs.com is a niche job board that focuses on paralegal jobs and related positions in the legal field. With jobs ranging from legal assistant to litigation paralegal, most non-attorney law office positions are covered. Firms hiring for these positions will have the advantage of highly targeted traffic to their job posts.

NICUJobs.com targets the highly specialized career arena of neonatal intensive care nursing jobs, allowing hospitals and medical recruiters maximum focus and ROI on their recruiting efforts. Early feedback from recruiters indicates this particular board will be of immediate value to medical human resources professionals.

LocateLogisticsJobs.com tackles the sometimes-ill-defined arena of logistics and includes jobs that vary from CDL drivers to logistics analyst jobs. The geographic component to this logistics jobs resource is especially important, empowering employers as well as job seekers to narrow broader searches to more specific locations.

LocateEnvironmentalJobs.com is a nod toward the growing concern over our decaying environment, providing a professional stepping stone for people to find environmental jobs that might help in saving the planet. With a broader selection of employment categories than many of the sites in the Locate Jobs Network, job seekers will find everything from renewable energy jobs to environmental safety jobs

New Job Board Concentrates on Greater Philadelphia Area

gi_0_0_phillyjobfestlogo

Looking for a job just became easier with the launch of Philly Job Fest, the only job board that is concentrated completely on the greater Philadelphia area.

Jobs will only remain on the site for 30 days, and job posts will automatically be sent to the popular “Tweet My Jobs” service, which in turn relays them to the appropriate channels on Twitter. Users of “Tweet My Jobs” and Twitter can receive instantaneous job alerts on their cell phones based on their job search parameters. Listings on Philly Job Fest will be indexed by the popular job search engine Indeed. Basic Philly Job Fest subscriptions start at $99.

Site founder James Oley said he developed the idea for a new job board after his job search earlier this year led him to sites populated with multi-level marketing scams, investment “opportunities” and an inbox filled with junk mail as a result of creating accounts on various job boards. He found the big job boards too confusing and time consuming, with bells and whistles unnecessary in a legitimate job search.

Philly Job Fest includes counties around greater Philadelphia, such as Bucks, Chester, Delaware, Montgomery and Philadelphia along with the New Jersey counties of Burlington, Camden and Gloucester.

The job board is different than other sites in that it is easy to navigate, doesn’t have pop-up ads or annoying clutter and only houses the best, most up-to-date job listings. Users can upload their resume and search jobs easily and efficiently.
