Local job board creates a community for networking and resource sharing on the job hunt.

Cupertino, CA -- (SBWire) -- 05/20/2010 -- San Francisco Bay Area based job board BAJobs.com launched a full featured discussion board in early May designed to provide a space for job seekers to interact and support one another while searching for jobs. The discussion board, located at http://discussion.bajobs.com, offers features such as interview tips, peer resume critiques and networking opportunities as well as news on the job market and upcoming career fairs. The goal of the site is to give the un- and under-employed a destination to enrich their job hunt.

This is a prime time for a discussion board of this nature, believes Marketing Director Skye Callan. “There’s room for cooperation in the job market these days,” she said. “With such a wide range of jobs available in the Bay Area, there’s less need for competition. Now more than ever local job seekers need a place to network, strategize or even just commiserate.”

The discussion board, which is free to use, is already home to a vibrant community. “We try to stay in close touch with our users, and we’re hearing more than anything else that there’s a great deal of confusion and frustration about the ‘right’ way to conduct a job search. The discussion board gives the opportunity to get solid feedback from both BAJobs.com staff members and users who have been dealing with the same problems.”

This new discussion board is the first step in the new site look and feel development anticipated for later this year.
