CareerBuilder Canada is launching a new free “Jobs” iPhone application that enables job seekers to search and apply for jobs from virtually anywhere. Using the iPhone’s built-in geolocation technology, the CareerBuilder Canada application “Jobs by CB” automatically determines the location of the job seeker and then allows them to find a job using a simple keyword search. iPhone users can even apply for positions directly through the CareerBuilder application.
“CareerBuilder Canada is continuously looking for new ways to engage with the largest possible audience – one way we are doing that is through smart technology,” said Chris Skerrett, Director of CareerBuilder Canada. “Giving iPhone and iPod Touch users the ability to search for jobs from virtually any location adds a whole new level of convenience and accessibility to job hunting.”
With CareerBuilder Canada’s new iPhone app, job seekers have the ability to:
– Create a user account from the application
– Upload a resume – or create a new one
– Job search by keyword, location or company
– Search results directly on a map relative to their current location
– E-mail jobs to themselves or others
– Mark jobs they like as “favorites” for easy reference
– Apply directly to jobs from the iPhone application
– Browse recommended jobs and see application history
– Sync existing account and resumes from CareerBuilder
– Search for jobs by:
– company name – the name of the employer desired
– search radius – maximum desired distance from the specified
location
– employment type – full-time, part-time, intern, contractor,
seasonal, etc…
