Nationwide job search provider Insourced has recently expanded its offerings to include a free job board and the industry's first user-powered job rating system.
Woodstock, Maryland (PRWEB) July 5, 2007 -- Insourced, a nation-wide employment portal for job seekers, employers and recruiters has recently expanded its offerings to include a free job board and its proprietary "inThing" module, the industry's
first ever user-powered job rating system. inThing allows job seekers and other visitors to conduct a
job search and vote on the quality of the job listings at Insourced.com, with votes tallied and viewable to all subsequent users.
Unlike most vertical job search engines, the new Insourced job search application includes jobs only from primary sources and direct hiring agents and never scrapes content from secondary job sources. All job postings are free for employers, authorized recruiters, and staffing firms and job seekers have direct access to the hiring contacts for each job listing in the Insourced database. The result is a "hybrid" that combines the features of a vertical job search engine with those of a traditional job board.
Michael Wist, Director of Content for Insourced, added, "In addition to an entirely free service, we intend to be extremely active regarding spam removal and prevention. There are thousands of questionable and often entirely illegitimate job offerings cluttering most major job boards and that will simply not be tolerated at Insourced." In addition to the company's vigilance in keeping
job listings as clean and relevant as possible, Insourced has created the inThing system and opened other lines of communication so that users can immediately notify Insourced representatives if one its job listings is of questionable value.
"The inThing rating system is something that we felt would add a unique level of interactivity with our job seekers and other users," explained Matthew Blevins, Director of Marketing for Insourced. "In addition to aiding us in keeping our job listings free of spam and clutter, we are excited to see what type of value the input from our job seekers might bring to our database." In keeping with that theme, Insourced also offers both job posters and job seekers the ability to 'tag' each job, offering a semantic approach to job searching that heavily factors in users' impressions of any given job listing. The result is a more fluid, user-friendly job search portal.
Insourced has also integrated several powerful tools and resources for job seekers, employers, and recruiters. Through a partnership with JibberJobber, users have access to one of the most innovative networking and career management tools in the industry. Full integration with Google Maps allows job seekers the ability to pinpoint local job searches, while a co-branded partnership with Payscale.com offers updated salary information and statistics for virtually every position imaginable.
