Youngstown, OH (PRWEB) December 16, 2009 -- There are many methods people use to find employment today. Going place to place with resume in hand, going to job fairs, going through recruiters, and searching the numerous online job websites.
In the past, each one of the above-mentioned methods for finding employment would offer the job seeker a decent chance of locating work, but that was then and this is now. Today many resumes sit in a pile on someone’s desk, are filed away in a drawer, or get tossed into a garbage can. Job fairs may attract thousands of job seekers, but they may be competing for only a hundred or so positions. The Internet does offer an easy way to search job openings from around the country, but most of those jobs seem to fill quicker then clicking the link to get there.
There is a method, in addition to the above-mentioned ones, which may offer the job seeker their best opportunity to get hired. This method is a personal reference by word-of-mouth from a friend, family member, neighbor, or a stranger. Having someone who is currently employed at a particular place of work provide a word-of-mouth recommendation has proven to be a very reliable method of getting in the door.
Gotamobi.com brings this word-of-mouth recommendation method into the 21st century online. The website has a totally free and easy-to-use concept allowing people to help others find work. It allows the Good Samaritan in people the chance to help others in need. The site can be used to post known jobs from a community board within one’s own place of work, a Now Hiring sign posted in a window, or from business marquee signs. Both the small time business owner, without a large advertising budget, or a human resources recruiter, can use this service to seek out new employees or advertise services available on the employer’s side of the interaction.
The website also allows the user to place a short professional resume summary, listing their work experience, in order for employers or job recruiters to contact them in the event that they are interested.
Rising unemployment is an epidemic. The United States was built by the power of people working together to accomplish a common goal.
