Lifestyle Job Searches with SimplyHired

Posted on Friday, October 27, 2006 by Frank Roche

SimplyHired LogoSimplyHired is a job search engine that works to narrow offerings to companies that people would want to join. Pretty cool idea. Michael Arrington at TechCrunch wrote about SimplyHired’s novel approach to parsing its 5M+ listings:

On Monday Simply Hired will announce another specialty search engine, this time for 50+ year olds. This adds already existing search engines for dog, mother, environmental and sexual orientation friendly companies.

So, what does this type of approach say about the market for talent? My take: Potential employees want to join companies that suit them, and aren’t just a money tree. How’s your company perceived out there in the lifestyle arenas?

Support this post around the web. We would really appreciate it.
