PRNewswire
CHICAGO

CareerBuilder.com, the nation's largest online job site with more than 20 million unique visitors and over 1 million jobs, is providing a faster, simpler way for employers to target qualified job seekers in their local area. CareerBuilder.com's new State Job Postings offering enables employers with several locations to post one job to an entire state instead of having to post multiple jobs to individual cities -- resulting in less work, less time and less cost.

According to a recent nationwide survey by CareerBuilder.com, 47 percent of hiring managers say it takes them more than one month to fill their open positions. Nearly one-in-four report their time-to-hire exceeds two months on average. The State Job Postings offering is designed to help expedite the recruitment process by increasing awareness of available opportunities amongst local, relevant candidates.

"State job postings appear when job seekers search any city within the state and are ideal for companies with overlapping opportunities in the area," said Mary Delaney, Chief Sales Officer at CareerBuilder.com. "Adding this option to our national, regional and city postings provides more flexibility and cost-savings for our customers and reduces time spent posting jobs and sorting through resumes for the right candidate."
