With Jobfox Intros, Career Site Makes More than 50,000 Monthly

Introductions between Job Candidates and Recruiters

MCLEAN, Va., Sept. 8 /PRNewswire/ -- Jobfox, the Internet's only career site to make personal introductions between employers and job candidates, today announced that its employer customer base has more than doubled over the first eight months of 2008. Jobfox now has more than 2,000 nationwide employer customers. Since launching its new Jobfox Intros(TM) services in August, Jobfox is making more than 50,000 monthly introductions between "5-Star" matching candidates and employers.

"Jobfox has a way of matching us with candidates we couldn't find through other sites," said Chris Drakeford, a recruiter for Time Warner Cable Inc. "Jobfox captures candidates who are working and not aggressively looking. We've been amazed at how well Jobfox matches us with qualified people."

Drakeford is one of more than 6,000 corporate recruiters saving time and money by using Jobfox to more efficiently fill positions with highly qualified professionals. For example, Time Warner Cable recently used Jobfox to hire sales and information technology professionals. Drakeford said Jobfox was twice as fast in getting her to the right candidates versus using myriad traditional job boards such as CareerBuilder and Monster.

Other companies recently added and benefiting from Jobfox's precision matching and personal introductions include Aflac Incorporated, Bank of America Corporation, Brigham and Women's Hospital, The Cheesecake Factory Incorporated, Choice Hotels International, Coinstar Inc., Edmunds.com Inc., Enterprise Rent-A-Car, Ernst & Young LLP, Foot Locker Inc., Mitsubishi Motors North America Inc., Mortgage Bankers Association, New York Life Insurance Company, Skechers USA Inc., TomTom NV, Verizon Communications Inc. and Whole Foods Market.

Jobfox created the Internet's first precision job-fit matching service with its Jobfox Mutual Suitability System(TM), enabling employers to pinpoint information-rich candidate profiles. Jobfox Intros services extend the benefits of Jobfox's scientific matching by enabling employers to immediately connect to and network with top-matching candidates. The millions of job seekers who visit Jobfox each month can also make introduction requests with best-fit employers.

Other Jobfox services for employers include:

    --  Human-assistance with introductions. The Jobfox Intros team monitors all
        5-Star matches and assists in the coordination of introductions.
    --  Ongoing networking with candidates. With My Jobfox Connections(TM),
        employers maintain a dynamic talent-pool network that is continuously
        updated with new candidate vitals.
    --  Track online recruiting performance. 					Hidden List 					 Jobfox Plus
        enables employers to measure the effectiveness of all online recruiting
        sources, including tracking the performance of the company's own
        Web site.
    --  Auto-posting. With Jobfox AutoPost, employers automatically import jobs
        from applicant tracking systems and from company Web sites.

"Jobfox continues to distance itself as a leader of online recruiting innovations," said Jobfox CEO Rob McGovern. "In addition, the Jobfox team provides a personal touch that employers only find with top-dollar employment agencies and staffing firms."

Candidates are also turning to Jobfox for an improved career management experience. Jobfox's candidate traffic has tripled over a 12-month period, August 2007 through August 2008.
