Pasadena, CA — Harrison Barnes, the CEO of EmploymentCrossing (www.employmentcrossing.com), a website that consolidates jobs from employer websites and other job boards, says there is not a crisis in the employment market as reported by the Department of Labor on Friday. Instead, Barnes believes jobs are getting harder to find because they are moving so rapidly away from local newspapers to the web — to so many websites that job seekers can no longer find the jobs that are available.
“The jobs are disbursed among too many websites,” says Barnes. “It used to be you could pick up one or maybe two local newspapers when looking for a job. Now you need access to the web, and most job seekers are visiting only a few sites when searching for a job. We visit over 10,000 websites a day to find jobs for our site. There are jobs out there for everyone. Not surprisingly, the job losses being reported by the Labor Department are also largely confined to professions like manufacturing where people do not have access to the web.”
According to Barnes, people looking for jobs simply cannot find the openings that are available. With over 10,000 job sites and even more employer career pages, Barnes believes that job openings are distributed to so many sites that it is getting harder for people to find jobs.
Barnes believes that his EmploymentCrossing.com site is “a good first step” towards solving this problem because it consolidates every job it can find. In addition, EmploymentCrossing is a research company and does not charge employers to post jobs — all it does is research jobs.
“EmploymentCrossing’s business model is to do nothing but consolidate every single job on our site. I view the number of Internet sites out there with jobs on them as a crisis, and job seekers should too,” says Barnes.
