Online Job Search – A Great Employment Opportunity

Monday, August 10th, 2009

Most Internet job sites are painfully similar and amazingly ineffective at doing anything more than wasting countless hours of your time. You can search the databases and keywords and find listing after listing of jobs that match your needs fairly well only to find that they are hiring in California but you are in Maine. Or they were looking for someone but the ad expired two days ago. Then there are the job boards where you send off a sign up sheet email and get nothing back except spam emails that promise this or that or tell you to do this or that to get a job.

T-Rex Jobs is totally different and goes about helping match prospective employers with qualified folks that are out there. Not necessarily folks that are in need of a job but more like folks that are looking for opportunities and are keeping their options open so that when a great employment opportunity comes knocking, there is someone there to answer the door. See with T-Rex Jobs the employer puts his or her job up stating what the needs, skills, salary, area it is located in and any other pertinent information about it into the site from that end. They look at what is an acceptable standard for that position. Maybe it is a fairly critical job and they would like to find someone that can score well and generate a match on at least 80 percent of the areas that the perspective employer has keyed into the system.

The folks at T-Rex Jobs then run a little algorithm on the database and out pop any matches that meet that 80 percent ratio. If yours happens to be in that groups you will receive an Email from T-Rex Jobs stating that your profile is a possible match for such and such a position at this company or that company. You can then look over that information and decide if it is worth your time contacting them to pursue this any farther or hit the delete key.

You see what is different here is that the job database is not searchable. You, as a potential employee can’t punch in Retail Management in the search bar and get a thousand possible matches. Nor will you get as many possible jobs on this site as you may on that other site. But the jobs that you do get sent to you are ones that you are tailored for you specifically.
