Originally founded in 1996 by Richard Johnson in New York City, HotJobs was initially known as RBL Agency. The job board was initially designed to cater mostly to technical job opportunities, particularly in the computer programming and information technology industries. However, after years of expansion, smart deal-making (including an advertising partnership with Yahoo!), and an eventual acquisition in 2002 of the site by the popular search engine, Yahoo!, www.HotJobs.Yahoo.com was born.
Similar to its competitor job boards and job search engines, Yahoo! HotJobs allows users to browse or search through thousands of posted job openings in a variety of different fields and specializations. In addition, using Yahoo!'s search engine technologies, users can also weed out openings that do not interest them or pertain to their particular qualifications.
Job seekers can also upload copies of their resumes directly onto the site to help them apply for job openings quickly and easily, making the job search a much more stress-free process. When you find a job you think you are qualified to apply for, just click on the "Apply Now" button and you will be immediately prompted to upload your resume. If your resume is saved on the site under your account, you could potential save loads of time just on the application process alone.
In addition, users can benefit from a wide variety of tools, tips, and articles for job seekers and employers. Job seekers can read valuable information about career advancement, tips to help them stand out at work, and a variety of other interesting facts about their career fields or specializations.
Yahoo! HotJobs is definitely an invaluable resource for job seekers nationwide. If you are looking to change your career, or simply want to see what opportunities may be available to you, visit www.HotJobs.Yahoo.com and begin your search today!
