Pasadena, CA  — On Monday, May 19, EmploymentCrossing (www.employmentcrossing.com), one of the world’s largest job-opening research companies, launched EnergyCrossing (www.energycrossing.com). EnergyCrossing’s goal is to provide a collection of energy jobs so comprehensive that it completely changes how people search for energy jobs. EnergyCrossing consolidates all of the energy job announcements it can find by searching employer websites, other job boards, and small regional publications.

As fuel prices continue to skyrocket and as the public continues to learn of the very real, catastrophic problems associated with global warming, energy professionals are in hot demand in the US today to develop alternative fuels as well as more efficient ways to develop clean and renewable forms of energy.

''In this market people looking for energy jobs need to know the full scale of opportunities available,'' says Harrison Barnes, founder and CEO of EnergyCrossing. ''Job openings that are not widely known or publicized are the easiest jobs to get, and these are the jobs we specialize in tracking down.''

Some areas in which EnergyCrossing researches energy job openings include:

• Geoscience jobs
• Drilling energy jobs
• Reservoir energy jobs
• Solar energy jobs
• Wind energy jobs
• Green energy jobs
• Power plant energy jobs

EnergyCrossing, an EmploymentCrossing website, was launched to assist energy professionals with sorting out the opportunities that they may not find out about otherwise and save them thousands of hours of research. Unlike other job boards, the site focuses solely on energy jobs, and it doesn’t charge employers to post jobs.

''EnergyCrossing.com is a research company that works for job seekers,'' Barnes says. ''We seek to connect energy professionals to employers.''

The most popular searches on EnergyCrossing during its first day in operation were:
Renewable energy jobs

• Green energy jobs
• Energy jobs
• Department of Energy jobs
• Jobs in the energy sector
• Energy trading jobs
• Wind energy jobs
• Renewable energy jobs in Houston, Texas
• Duke Energy jobs
• Power plant energy jobs

EnergyCrossing charges $29.95 a month to view its energy job-opening research. As part of the site’s launch special, however, EnergyCrossing is offering a free, seven-day trial to allow job seekers to familiarize themselves with the service.
