On The 225th Day of
the Year, Entrepreneur Hopes To Help
225 Area Companies
Following the Los Angeles County Economic Development Corp.’s
2008-2009 Mid-Year Economic Forecast that predicted that Los Angeles County will
add 2,300 jobs this year, but that the entire state is still on the brink of
a recession, Frank Buddenbrock, founder of findanexpertonline.com and
jobsworkandcareers.com decided to use his websites to help fill these positions.
“Even companies who are still growing are experiencing the pinch of the slow economy. This means that while they may have jobs to fill, outsourcing their recruitment and hiring processes to executive recruiters may not be in their budget,” Buddenbrock says.
“Moreover, some of the dominant job sites charge several
hundred dollars per listing to post a position,” he adds. “Even that can
really hinder a small business’ hiring opportunities. So I decided to offer
225 Los Angeles area businesses the opportunity to post job listings for free on
jobsworkandcareers.com.”
Beginning August 12 (the 225th day of the year), Los Angeles
area businesses with job positions to fill are encouraged to submit their job
posting via the home page of jobsworkandcareers.com for posting at no charge.
The listing will remain on the site for three months. Job seekers are never
charged for posting a resume on the site.
Buddenbrock, who founded findanexpertonline.com in 2005
developed jobsworkandcareers.com in early 2008 as an accompaniment to
findanexpertonline.com, the top ranked online site for finding experts on both
Google and Yahoo!.
“I developed jobsworkandcareers.com because so many people
were coming to findanexpertonline.com looking for experts to fill positions.
It became clear immediately that we needed a job site to complement the existing
database,” Buddenbrock adds.
Buddenbrock hopes that by offering companies the opportunity to
recruit successfully but free of charge, “the predictions that Los Angeles
County will continue to add jobs, albeit far fewer than we all would like to
see; will come to fruition. After all, we all stand to benefit by strengthening
our local economy.”
