The Future of the Engineering Job Hunt

January 16, 2008

What is the future of the engineering job search, and job searching in general? Hopefully it’s a lot different than the status quo. The majority of major employers of engineers have moved to an almost exclusively online application process which has a variety of implications for the job seeker. Of course, due to the internet age, most of us head straight for the online job boards when beginning the search for new career opportunities. Despite the best efforts of users, it is really difficult to get good matches with todays online job boards. Monster, Career Builder, Dice and the others all use different methodologies to match the information you input against the job descriptions they have in their databases and none of them come out a true winner.

Hire-Engineers.com is here to change all that, and change the future of the engineering job hunt. We are currently developing what will surely be a breakthrough in online job search technology, bringing enhanced function and relevancy to an arena in which it’s severely lacking. Soon, you will be able to find any engineering job in any field, from aerospace engineering jobs to civil engineering to nuclear engineering… they will all be here.

As we develop our platform, we welcome comments and suggestions as to what features you think would be useful to you, whether you’re a recruiter or a job seeker. Keep your eyes on hire-engineers.com as we begin to roll out service in the coming months.
