JobPrize.com - Informed Employees Help The UnEmployed Get Jobs

May 31, 2010 - PRLog -- In this economy, we need to find new ways to bring unemployment from out of a slump.  Companies have open positions that need to be filled, but are not effectively advertised.  Job seekers need jobs, but do not have the contacts to refer them, or yet has spent hundreds of hours submitting jobs through websites and filling out applications with no luck.  So if you could pay someone $500 to find you a job paying $70,000 would you?

That’s the idea behind JobPrize.  Jobprize.com is a job referral network which allows job seekers to offer a monetary prize to informed corporate employees willing to refer them to and find them a position within their companies.  Job seekers can work within their personal network or allow worldwide “Prize Hunters” to refer them to a position within the “Prize Hunters” company.  

Job searching using this method is a game changer.  It extends internally advertised job openings to everyone.  This also strengthens the job seekers likelihood of obtaining an interview and landing the job.  In today’s world, 75% of jobs are being found through referrals.  Whether it’s a close friend or someone whom you paid to find the position the outcome is still the same, a solid job.

By using Job Prize, job seekers now have another tool to help them land their perfect position.  Here is how it works, New College Grads, Seasoned Employees, or Entry Level individuals can sign up for an account at JobPrize.com.  They post a profile which includes the type of job being sought.  Next, they post a prize amount of how much they are willing to pay someone to help them land the job.  Once submitted, “prize hunters” can search the site for prizes within their industry.  If they find one, they can match it up to their company database and “refer” the job seeker to the position.  In many instances, companies offer a referral bonus, so the “prize hunter” can choose to take this bonus, or take a reward from the job seeker.  

Because most jobs are landed through referrals, this will ultimately lead to a more fruitful job search and put our network of prize hunters to work for you cutting hundreds of hours of search time and allowing job seekers to focus on what’s important, building their skills.  So, let’s ask the question again, after 100 resume submissions and no luck, would you pay someone $500 to refer you to a job paying $70,000 per year?  It’s worth it.
