Depending on who you talk with, artificial intelligence is either the best thing for the job board industry since sliced bread or one of the four horsemen of the apocalypse. Today's guest, Yazad Dalal of Joveo, discusses AI differently. Yes, it is a game-changer for employers, talent acquisition vendors, and others. However, its impact isn't all that different from the impact of other technologies when they were new. Our regular cohost, Peter M. Zollman of AIM Group, is off today. Joining us as

Resurrecting a well-known brand: The rebirth of Jobster

2024/10/06

This spring, in what felt like a Back to the Future moment for veterans of job boards, the Jobster.com brand was reborn.The original Jobster was founded in 2004 in Seattle, Washington, USA and led by Jason Goldberg. It raised $50 million, which was an eye-popping amount of money at the time. It attempted to combine the best of social media, which was in its infancy at the time, and job boards, which weren't much older. Within a couple of years, Jason departed, mass layoffs commenced, and the once

Tom Wood of The Hub is our guest today to help us separate fact from fiction: are job seekers actually using AI to apply to a massive number of jobs, or is that mostly urban legend? Hint: the truth is somewhere in between those two extremes. Cohost Peter M. Zollman of the AIM Group was unable to join us for today's episode and so Tom spoke with our other cohost, Steven Rothberg of College Recruiter. Together, they dig into the massive changes to the job market over the past handful of years, how

Dr. Julius Probst of Appcast and The Stepstone Group joins the podcast today to talk about how the labor markets impact job boards and recruitment marketplaces.

Marty Aghajanyan, Founder and CEO of JBoard, is today's guest. We talk about when new or even existing job boards should use off-the-shelf software from any of a couple of dozen providers, one of the most popular of which is JBoard, and when it makes more sense for them to build and maintain their own software.

Virtually every site that buys or sells traffic on a cost-per-click (CPC) basis does so by pulling candidates into their site, programmatically distributing jobs to other career sites, or some combination of the two. Today, cohosts Peter M. Zollman of AIM Group and Steven Rothberg of College Recruiter interview Tracey Parsons, the founder of Flockity, which is taking an entirely different approach. Instead of buying traffic from other career sites, it pays influencers -- many of whom are ordinary

Today's guest, Dylan Buckley of DirectlyApply, joins us from London, U.K. but their business only serves the U.S. market. Even more unusually, they're an aggregator that doesn't distribute jobs to other job boards, so they aren't engaged in the typical arbitrage model that virtually all other aggregators are. Oh, and there are only six employees, they have no salespeople, they've taken on virtually no investment, and they're profitable. So, what's the secret sauce for DirectlyApply? In short, focus

Industry veteran, Christopher Campbell of Reticular Media, joins us today for an episode that will be of great interest to any job board / recruitment marketplace that sends bulk, commercial emails such as job match alerts.

What do failed retailers K-Mart and Sears have in common with Monster and CareerBuilder? In both cases, you've got organizations that were large, vibrant, and dominant but gradually faded until their owners decided that combining them was somehow a great strategy. Today, global staffing company, Randstad, announced that it was ceding majority ownership of its Monster property through some kind of vague "combination" of the two job board organizations. Is this an acquisition? Apparently, no. Is this

A Glassdoor just user reported that it displayed her name beside her employer reviews despite her desire to be anonymous. Did Glassdoor deliberately display her name? Was it user error? Was there a technical snafu? We don't know. But it seems likely that Glassdoor's acquisition of social networking site, Fishbowl, has caused it to collect personally identifiable information (PII) directly from its users and indirectly from unnamed, third parties.
