New IEEE Job Site Goes to Work for Technical Job Seekers
WASHINGTON, D.C. (8 June 2001) - A new IEEE Job Site at www.ieee.org/jobs features the IEEE e-Recruiter™ job service that makes the job-hunting process easier and more effective for technical professional job seekers. The online service, sponsored by IEEE-USA and IEEE Spectrum, allows IEEE members worldwide to create and submit a profile of their background and the characteristics they'd like in a new job.

The service, powered by Hire.com's e-Recruiter™ software, then scours its extensive database for positions that match what the job hunter is looking for in employment. New job postings are continually being added, and the job seeker is notified by e-mail if there is a profile match. And the process can be conducted anonymously.

To encourage IEEE members to register and submit their profiles early, IEEE Spectrum will award a Personal Digital Assistant to three members who establish a profile within the first 90 days of the site's 7 June launch. The job service is free for IEEE members.

For more information or to register and submit a profile, visit www.ieee.org/jobs.
