Free job boards

free job boardsfree job board pioneerThe free classifieds and free job boards have fascinated me for years, perhaps because back when I was starting LatPro, the hottest thing around was headhunter.net. It was growing like wildfire and was perfectly free. Times have changed a lot since then and there is a whole new crop of free job boards -- here's the list and a compete.com ranking of the top 5 (roughly speaking):

If you know of any other worthy examples, please leave a comment, thanks!



Hi, very selfishly I would like to introduce my job board workerdog.com. We cater to tech professionals that have an active DoD security clearance... etc

 

** ejs ** it doesn't look very free to me. your graphics are obstructing text and you should rename your FAQ page "about us".

Jacob (not verified) - Pay per post

Myfirstpaycheck - With 50,000 job boards on the web reaching little to no users and craigslist not charging to post jobs, I would seriously re-think whether you're revenue model is based around paying to post. Employers dont have to do that anymore.

Cheryl (not verified) - Update the list?

I checked several of the entries on your list and they are NOT FREE. Most of them want you to sign up to either view resumes or post jobs, but they don't tell you until AFTER you register! Not impressive...

 **es** which ones Cheryl? I will be happy to update if you let me know specifically... I think you discovered the big downside of free, it's a time suck!

Keith (not verified) - Response to Cheryl

Just for clarification in case Cheryl was talking about ITp: ITpinnacle is 100% free for employers and job seekers. Once registered it asks employers to agree to pay one penny but that is purely to trigger an email to me so i can go into the system and make sure they are a legit employer and then I approve them and clear the invoice. The site has never produced revenue in any way and is not setup to produce any.

Jobs for Karma is a free site designed for people who believe that 'what goes around comes around.' As the national unemployment rate continues to rise, many of us either know someone looking for a job, or are looking for a job ourselves. One of the major keys to finding a job is networking to find out about job availability. Jobs for Karma is a website where you are invited to spread job listings far and wide--all completely free of charge. Everyone - job seekers, recruiters, hiring managers and staffing agencies - is welcome to use this site to post and read job listings. To post a job, email the job information to JKFwebmaster@gmail.com. The job will be posted for 30 days. Thanks to Google Sites for offering our website hosting for free!

http://WorkOffTheBooks.com has been created to allow those that do have jobs hire others that don't have jobs and help them out financially for doing odds and end work. The hiring person will rate the individual on how well they did and if they would recommend them to others or use them again. Businesses can search on these people and contact them for interviews as well. It's brand new and looking for attention.

Being an owner of a small business over the past five years, my business partner, and I, had enough with overpriced job posting sites. We decided to step up and do something about it by creating a free career web site. Pooling what little money we had from our other company, we funded a career center web site with all the same great features that other major career websites offer. The Employment Initiative, www.EmployInit.com was born with the collaboration of a local web design company and many hours of self-teaching in order to administrate a web site of this nature. With a catchy homepage, www.EmployInIt.com has a simple to use platform, a site design with the user in mind and many features for both employers and job seekers. We hope to achieve our one simple goal - one place where employers can post jobs and search resumes with no costs; thus creating more job opportunities under one site for job seekers than any other. Both of us having dealt with the expenses of hiring first hand, understand how difficult it is for companies with limited budgets to post their jobs on a major website. Local job postings costs can start at $300 and rise as high as $1000 and more for major web sites, with even more fees for resume searching. These sites are draining the pockets of the companies that are trying to fuel our dying economy. With the unemployment rate so high, the market is flooded with job seekers. But the bottom line is employers cannot afford these costs. At www.EmployInIt.com this problem can finally be solved with just one word....FREE.....! We need your help to get the word out, join our small fight to help our economy . - The Employment Initiative.

I would recommend my site www.findajobalready.com. Not only is it free, but it's entirely in AJAX and provides all of the tools the other free sites don't. The site is completely free for everyone.
June 16, 2009 - 1:49pm

I thought I'd suggest another free job board OddSkills.com. It launched a few months ago and is already producing a high level of traffic and applicants. The site is 100% FREE and always will be. There are no catches. You can also sign up for resume alerts and all jobs go into the aggregators.
