Empower Your Career Search
Empower your career search by using one
of the most powerful tools for identifying job opportunities.
Our Job Search Engine helps you identify positions that match your career
objectives and gives you a very significant advantage over other job
seekers who do not have access to this technology.
Let's face it, searching for a new career position is hard and stressful work. You
can spend countless hours searching for a suitable job opportunity,
only to find
that when you apply
for it, hundreds
of other qualified applicants have also applied for the same
position. This situation can be avoided with the use of efficient
tools and resources that tap into an unadvertised job market where
competition is less and possibilities are far greater.
The Job Search Engine consolidates new job postings from thousands of independent local
sources every day and provides powerful tools for a targeted job
search campaign. Unlike employer-funded job posting web sites,
our Job Search Engine is designed for the job seeker. It provides access
to a much larger number of job opportunities, many of which are not
listed on employer-sponsored sites. This is a job market where
competition is much less and your opportunities for success are far
greater.
And most importantly, Rockhurst conserves your most valuable resource--time--so, you can channel your energy to prepare for interviews,
network and focussing your job search.

Job Posting Web Sites |
|
Number of Job opportunities provided |
Over 6,000 unique new Ottawa job opportunities per month (typical).
|
Provides only 1/3 to 1/5 the number of unique new Ottawa job
opportunities in the same period.
|
These sites only post advertised jobs paid for by employers. As a
result, only a small percentage of all jobs available are captured
by these sites. Typically, a very large number of applicants apply
for a small number of jobs. |
|
Duplicate Jobs |
Quality program ensures duplicates are less than 2%. |
Large number of duplicate job entries.
|
Job
advertisements are repeated many times and it is difficult to
determine which are new or seen previously. |
|
Search Engine |
Provides a powerful job search engine that
identifies job opportunities that match your skills and interests.
Job search criteria can be saved and used
again. |
Not available |
Search engine tools have limited capabilities. In
many cases, it is not possible to identify newly posted jobs
because jobs are often reposted many times. |
|
Job Alerts |
The large number of jobs captured by Rockhurst
along with strong search engine tools make the Rockhurst Email Job
Alert system extremely powerful. It gives ours users a significant
advantage. |
Uncustomized email report with all new jobs is sent out to
subscribers. This report must be reviewed manually and can consume
several hours every day. |
Value reduced by limited
data set. Also, not all jobs are distributed by
alerts. |
|

Rockhurst has over a year of local, historical
job data. This allows you to research the historical availability
of jobs in your areas of interest and consider trends. |
