Here Job seekers have been quick to recognize the potential of the Internet in finding new jobs. Employers are turning to the Internet too. As many as 3 in 5 companies post jobs on company web sites. Many thus can see the potential of the job search on the Internet but few see actual results. The answer lies in translating an offline process to an online world.
Most companies struggle to find ways to make what they do applicable on the Internet.
So do individuals. A mechanic, for example, may be able to get new customers to his shop through the yellow pages. But for him to make his business profitable on the Internet requires a great deal more ingenuity. The answers for him are not obvious and not easy. The same is true for both employers and job seekers using the Internet to fill jobs.
