Pro2Net Launches Career Network to Serve Accounting/Finance
Job Seekers and Recruiters
New Online Career Resources Offer Enhanced Functions and
Greater Flexibility
SEATTLE (Nov. 14, 2000) - Pro2Net Corporation
(www.pro2net.com), the most comprehensive online resource
for business professionals, today introduced an upgraded
accounting and finance Career Network to meet the needs of
both job seekers and recruiters.
Pro2Net's online career resources have helped thousands of
accounting and finance professionals and recruiters since
1995. The enhanced Career Network is powered by an
e-recruiting solution licensed from CareerSite Corporation
of Ann Arbor, Mich.
"Career Network is more targeted, more dynamic and more
interactive than the large job boards currently serving the
market," said John Fitzpatrick, Pro2Net's president and CEO.
"And because it's integrated into the Pro2Net Web site, it
will attract a highly qualified audience that visits
regularly for news, reference materials, education and other
resources. Our Career Network is part of a professional
community rather than simply a career classified section."
Pro2Net Career Network features easy-to-use desktop tools
that streamline job hunting and recruiting. For example,
recruiters can view and update their job postings and track
responses in real time, and cross-post their open positions
on other selected employment sites.
Accounting and finance professionals looking to make career
moves can create and store resumes and cover letters,
receive e-mail notification of relevant openings and view
profiles of companies that have open positions. Unlike many
job boards that list job openings by date, the Pro2Net
Career Network's search criteria is based on a skills match,
prioritizing jobs that most closely match the applicant's
career profile. As a result, it delivers more targeted
results for both job seekers and recruiters. Job seekers
will also have access to an extensive lineup of
career-management resources available through Pro2Net.
"Working with Pro2Net is a great opportunity to create a
world-class e-recruitment site targeting the business
professional," said Don Dornbush, founder and president of
CareerSite. "Pro2Net is delivering both a one-stop site for
recruiters and a confidential career service for its
professional audience."
"We're excited about teaming up with CareerSite,"
Fitzpatrick added. "The company is very focused on
technology and customer service, and they're able to move
quickly to meet our needs."
