Shaker Partners With InXpo to Offer New Online Virtual Recruiting Resource


(Marketwire Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) CHICAGO, IL, January 20 / MARKET WIRE/ --

Shaker Recruitment Advertising & Communications
has strategically partnered with InXpo to provide companies with innovative
opportunities to attract talent by hosting their own Virtual Career Fairs.

The mutually beneficial relationship enables clients to capitalize on
Shaker's
nearly 60 years of recruitment expertise and the advanced technology
resources provided by InXpo, the leading provider of real-time virtual
events.

"We're very proud to have partnered with InXpo," says Tina Krater, Sales
Director.

"Shaker continually searches for innovative ways to leverage technology for
recruitment and retention. By capitalizing on the strength of the InXpo
product, we are able to provide an easy, convenient and cost-efficient
means of interaction between recruiters and jobseekers."

A sign of the migration toward increased online recruiting efforts, Virtual
Career Fairs simulate the physical/on-site career fair in an online
environment.

"Because this online career fair is managed in a completely virtual
environment, HR departments can cut costs of traditional, on-site events
while moving toward more environmentally-friendly recruiting methods,"
continued Krater.

"InXpo is extremely excited to partner with Shaker in this endeavor. While
InXpo has the technology and expertise to produce Virtual Career Fairs, it
is the experience and credibility of an organization like Shaker that
ensures the final success of the event," said Drew
VanVooren, President of InXpo.

Virtual Career Fairs also incorporate elements that parallel job boards and
social networking sites. Individual booths promote a company's career
opportunities similar to the customary on-site career fair and allow
jobseekers and recruiters to interact via instant chat or personal message.
Recruiters can also collect resumes from qualified jobseekers.
