JobsDB.com Re-establishes Position as Industry Innovator With “Dynamic Job Search on Map” and “Dashboard” design


Innovative and revolutionary new features to enable users to multi-task

Kuala Lumpur - 24 June 2010 – JobsDB.com, Asia Pacific’s leading job site, today launched a complete revamp of its website to give millions of jobseekers and employers an enhanced experience in their search for jobs or candidates. Its newest feature, “Dynamic Job Search on Map”, a location-based search interface, allows jobseekers to look at relevant jobs in specified locations. Users can view thousands of jobs on an in-built map on the fly, and these jobs will change as the search criteria is updated and the map is dragged. This feature is a first for any job portal in the region.

Efficient “Dashboard” Design

JobsDB.com’s new website aims to take the job search process to the next level. Focusing on user experience and improved efficiency, the proprietary system utilises a “dashboard” design which allows jobseekers and employers to perform multiple tasks on a single page without irritating page changes and pop-ups frequently experienced by web users. Through a split-screen display, named “Preview Mode”, jobseekers can view up to 100 job templates on the same page. Likewise, in “Resume Preview”, employers can open up to 100 brief or full resumes and process them under the same user-friendly design.

Industry Innovator

Since its inception, JobsDB.com has frequently enhanced its website with innovative and revolutionary designs. In 1998, it was the first to introduce “Job Alert”, emails customised to jobseeker’s search criteria, and the “Jobseeker-controlled Resume Release” function which safeguarded the privacy of its members. The “Paperless Job Fair”, also became a technological showcase for the company. These and other original designs have since become features adopted by the street and other jobsites in the region.

New features to be released in July

JobsDB.com will be launching its latest RMS (Recruitment Management System) with additional ground-breaking features in July.
