A View From The Top

by Keith Potts, Managing Director, Jobsite.com.

A rather busy month ...

Some people ask me what it's like to be MD of an established company. Whether you're a new start up or an established business, the pressure is constantly on to grow, innovate, and most critically, deliver what you promise to your customers.

Last week, we launched a new campaign to specifically help Scottish candidates and recruiters. Scotland is an incredibly buoyant market at the moment and there is real demand by recruiters and employers to find the best talent.

To help raise awareness of some of the great job opportunities in Scotland - from finance and marketing, to the somewhat more unusual roles such as beat keepers and ship's captains - we launched a four week advertising campaign on Radio Clyde, Scotland's oldest and most listened to radio station across Glasgow and West Central Scotland.

Jobsite also proudly sponsored the first ever Scottish Recruitment Forum, which focused on the current employment issues, influences, and opportunities in Scotland. As part of our presentation we explored the continuing challenges of matching the right people to the right jobs, and what currently influences people in their job seeking including the increasingly influential role played by social networking sites.

In that vein, I am also delighted to let you all know that Jobsite is now working exclusively with Friends Reunited to power www.FriendsReunitedJobs.co.uk. This is a fantastic partnership for us, as it aligns Jobsite with one of the UK's most well respected social networking brands and we hope it will attract a greater number and variety of interesting and exciting job opportunities for our jobseekers.

As if that wasn't enough for one month, Jobsite has also entered the world of Facebook. We have both a job search application called 'Job Match', and a forum group on Facebook called 'Find me a Job!' So come and visit us and join in some of our debates!
