Seek Self Service…

Seek is making it easier for your job ad. to be at the top of the search results list with its buy-a-Premium job ad. online service. Naturally, however, a superior listing will come at a price.
“At SEEK we’ve developed an even faster, easier way to buy Premium Ads – you can now do it online.
And we’ve created a short video to show you how simple it is. Visit the SEEK Advertiser Centre to learn more about Premium Ads and how they can provide you with greater exposure and more applicants.

What about my poor little standard job listing that keeps losing value and moving down the rankings? Carey Eaton has previously argued that Seek Premium ads. are targeted at employers rather than recruiters. This logic is flawed, however, if we consider the idea that it is more likely recruiters who will have the inclination to place their ads. in this self-service fashion.

The blog might take on an international flavor over the next few weeks. In the tradition of the middle-class male, I’m off on a European tour. In between cups of cafe au lait, I’m gonna have a look at what’s going in Paris and a few other cities in Western Europe. There’s some pretty interesting stuff happening over there in regard to online communication and recruitment and I hope to bring you news about my many adventures.
Au Revoir!
Upgrade To The SEEK Learning Site
April 28, 2008 by Geoff Jennings · Comments Off
April has been a good month to launch some site enhancements. The Big Chair launched some improvements to its job search. The team at Seek have been busy little bees over the long weekend. Today Seek launched an upgraded user interface for their SEEK Learning site, and, in partnership with IT certification training partner, SkillSoft, the UK counterpart.
Version 2 looks to have a better layout than the last with more strongly backed career content – in the form of both “career facts” and real-person interviews. Also, as expected there is better integration with Seek’s job search.

This week might also see a glimpse of the new MyCareer – JobFox initiative called Head Hunter and the JobX Recruitmenow site promises a launch by May 1st.
