		<description><![CDATA[<img src="http://www.cheezhead.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/chad-hair.jpg" align="right">By Joel Cheesman - Drill Search Chad must've forgotten to take his meds before our podcast this week, following up the SHRM conference. Either that, or the coffee was particularly strong that morning.

Not happy with Monster.com's apparently feeble attempt to keep America working by issuing complementary job postings at the show, Chad said, "[Monster's promo] was the biggest load of crap I've ever heard. If Monster really cared, they would have changed their damned business model a long time ago and they wouldn't have been shedding 150 people yesterday."

We also get around to things like Twitter's impact on jobs, the cesspool of duplicate job content on the Web and an update on Jobfox CEO Rob McGovern's condition after a brutal car accident. It's good to be back.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>The Chad and Cheezhead Podcast is back and the newest episode covers everything from the recent <a target="_blank" href="http://www.shrm.org/CONFERENCES/annual/Pages/default.aspx">SHRM conference</a> to the condition of <a href="http://www.cheezhead.com/2007/07/22/rob-mcgovern-jobfox-podcast/">Jobfox CEO Rob McGovern</a>.</p>
<p>The majority of the podcast covers the SHRM 2009 Conference, which, at about 10,000 attendees total, was half as big as usual. The economy is probably to blame for this, with big names like <a target="_blank" href="http://www.jobing.com">Jobing</a> turning out to be a no-show and Monster not hosting a party or making its usual million dollar charity donation.</p>
<p>Those companies that didn&#8217;t show could have benefited from settling for a smaller presence in order to still make business contacts. Some people thought the over-the-top displays from the big companies that could make it were a bit too much.</p>
<p>In either case, the SHRM conference is not normally a big driver of revenue, but more of a chance for companies to compete amongst one another. And despite those who did or didn&#8217;t make an impact, attendees were still treated to such events as a Tweet-Up and a <a target="_blank" href="http://www.sherylcrow.com/">Sheryl Crow</a> concert.</p>
<p>The podcast also touches on <a target="_blank" href="http://www.cheezhead.com/2009/06/25/ved-hotjobs-introduces-pay-per-candidate/">Yahoo&#8217;s new pay-per-candidate model</a>, an innovative attempt to compete in a different way; Twitter&#8217;s role in job search, which includes <a href="http://www.directemployers.com">Direct Employers Association</a>&#8217;s pilot with <a target="_blank" href="http://www.tweetmyjobs.com">TweetMyJobs</a>; and the ever-increasing presence of duplicate job content on the Web.</p>
<p>The podcast also notes that McGovern, who <a href="http://www.cheezhead.com/2009/06/27/jobfox-ceo-suffers-car-accident-hospitalized/">was recently involved in a bad car accident</a>, is healing quickly and possibly prepping to move to a hospital in Washington, D.C.</p>
<p>Enjoy.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a target="_blank" href="http://www.oodle.com/">Oodle</a> has begun its integration of <a target="_blank" href="http://twitter.com/">Twitter</a>.</p>
<p>Users can now post classified listings on Oodle and automatically share those listings with friends on Twitter. Listings are tweeted into your Twitter stream so your followers can immediately see them. Oodle&#8217;s integration of Twitter follows the company&#8217;s integration with <a target="_blank" href="http://www.facebook.com">Facebook</a> and <a target="_blank" href="http://www.myspace.com">MySpace</a>. </p>
<p>Oodle also is tweeting all job listings posted to its network onto the company&#8217;s own Twitter account. This will enable users searching Twitter to have access to hundreds of thousands of relevant classified listings in real-time. All tweets link back to listings from online profiles on Oodle, Facebook or MySpace.</p>
<p>Oodle promises that more interesting Twitter-related features will be added to the site in the near future. The company also said that classifieds will soon become more social.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[The company has confirmed its latest round of layoffs and announced its plans to open a new technology center in Massachusetts.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>At the beginning of this week, <a target="_blank" href="http://www.cheezhead.com/2009/07/06/layoffs-rumored-monster/">we told you</a> that a source had informed us <a href="http://www.monster.com">Monster</a> laid off about 200 employees. The company is now officially confirming those layoffs and announcing the opening of a new technology center.</p>
<p>On Wednesday, the company announced its plans to open a new Technology Center of Excellence &#038; Innovation in Cambridge, Mass. Monster is now actively recruiting for about 80 new technical positions to be located at the center, although there is the potential to add a total of 170 new positions.</p>
<p>Kathy O’Reilly, senior manager of media relations at Monster, said the positions the company is looking to fill are &#8220;very specific.&#8221; The company is already getting the word out about just who and what they&#8217;re looking to hire. For instance, the <a target="_blank" href="http://twitter.com/monstercareers">Monster Careers Twitter page</a> lists an opening for a senior network engineer.</p>
<p>Along with the opening of the new center will come an effort to make organizational changes to shift or add talent and skills within the company. Those organizational changes include the elimination of about 160 positions within the global product and technology group, with about 50 jobs in Maynard being affected.</p>
<p>An unnamed former manager-level employee at the Maynard site told <a target="_blank" href="http://www.masshightech.com/stories/2009/07/06/daily34-Monster-cuts-160-creates-80-jobs-in-Cambridge.html">Mass High Tech Business News</a> that the layoffs affected staff members who had been working on the integration of <a target="_blank" href="http://www.trovix.com/">Trovix Inc.</a> Monster acquired that semantic job search product last year for $72.5 million.</p>
<p>Despite the layoffs, Monster has created a new leadership position, which is focused on long-term strategic planning and customer engagement. The company also has consolidated the employer and seeker product development teams and issued several related promotions.</p>
<p>&#8220;Over the past two years we have successfully re-launched our employer and seeker sites on a global basis and we have made substantial progress on the consolidation of our various operating platforms which has resulted in a need for different skills and expertise as we pursue our next generation of product and search technologies,&#8221; CEO Sal Iannuzzi said. &#8220;We believe that our new technology center will provide the physical and personnel resources to help us successfully execute on our strategic investments. We are making what we believe are the right moves to create the new products and services our customers need.&#8221;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a target="_blank" href="http://www.twitterjobsearch.com">TwitterJobSearch</a>, a real-time job search engine, is now enabling job seekers to attach a video resume to job offers posted on Twitter. </p>
<p>Users can record their video resume and then upload it to job postings with one click. </p>
<p>&#8220;Recruiters are now faced with the challenge of having to quickly evaluate multiple candidates, and video can help in these assessments,&#8221; said Bill Fischer, Co Founder of TwitterJobSearch. &#8220;We&#8217;re tracking and/or working with companies in 17 countries that are using Twitter as part of their recruitment efforts. Our products build a layer of services on the Twitter infrastructure that connects job seekers and employers.&#8221;</p>
<p>A company rep said also noted that TwitterJobSearch is now working with companies in Europe, the USA, Brazil and Australia to ensure their social media recruitment activity fits the Twitter interaction environment.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Wall Street Journal enlisted two professionals <a target="_blank" href="http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052970203577304574276082918038074.html">to test the capabilities</a> and accuracy of four job sites that use matching technology to connect job seekers: <a target="_blank" href="http://www.jobfox.com">Jobfox</a>, <a target="_blank" href="http://www.careerbuilder.com">CareerBuilder</a>, <a target="_blank" href="http://www.bintro.com">Bintro</a>, and <a target="_blank" href="http://www.trovix.com">Trovix</a>. </p>
<p>After completing the initial set-up that each site required, the testers compared the resulting job suggestions and concluded that only a handful of the jobs were relevant. </p>
<p>For Bintro, a matching site in beta, the job seekers spent 30-45 minutes filling out a questionnaire. One of the seekers, an IT pro, wasn&#8217;t matched to any jobs. The other seeker, a marketing professional, was only given two referrals. </p>
<p>With Jobfox, the IT pro was matched with 35 &#8216;pretty accurate&#8217; jobs. The marketing professional was given two jobs, neither of which were a good match. </p>
<p>Trovix dealt a variety of jobs to the testers, but both complained that none were relevant to their experience levels. </p>
<p>With CareerBuilder, the professionals liked the in-depth search parameters, but the results were also disappointing. The jobs they were matched to failed to fully represent their credentials. </p>
<p>So why are these sites falling short? Is it kinks in those proprietary algorithms embedded within each site, or is simply a lack of relevant jobs? What matching sites have you found to be the most accurate?  </p>
