Jobalot Launches Job Snippets Program NationwideNORFOLK, Va. --(Business Wire)-- Jobalot, (www.Jobalot.com), the innovative aggregator of targeted and niche job boards and a division of Dominion Enterprises, today announced the nationwide launch of its Job Snippets program. Job Snippets offers job seekers Internet job content through The Employment Guide's nationwide print publications. "This partnership between Jobalot and The Employment Guide will provide Jobalot's affiliate partners with a tremendous distribution channel by utilizing the backbone of our 68 local market print publications. With the inclusion of Jobalot's job content in all of our local publications, The Employment Guide clearly becomes the leading source of local job content among weekly recruitment publications," said Jack Webber, Regional Manager of The Employment Guide. Jobalot advertises local opportunities labeled by job title and a unique job identification number which, through the Job Snippets program, is also printed in local issues of The Employment Guide. The reader can then log on to EmploymentGuide.com and enter the job identification number in the Job Snippets icon found in the upper right corner of the featured city page. This is the first time such a cross-over program has run between two recruitment solutions. "There is intelligent life in print," said blogger Joel Cheesman of Cheezhead.com (www.Cheezhead.com). "Job Snippets shows that you can connect offline to online in a way that really works and, hello, opens new revenue streams." The Job Snippets program was introduced in The Employment Guide's Dallas market print publication, and has been in beta-testing since September. It was then rolled out in Reno, Nevada, and Greensboro, North Carolina, in January and is now ready for nationwide distribution. "We're excited about the partnership between The Employment Guide and Jobalot. The beta-testing in Dallas has been extremely positive in providing aggressive and qualified job seekers for our clients," said Kirsteen Lankford, project manager for Jobalot.
