  What do you think is the future of Job-boards..?

  As we know, Job-boards earn their money by selling advertisements to Recruiters. An average vacancy-advertisement on a good job-board costs us somewhere between 150 and 300 dollars.

  Now, new networking groups who are able to publish on the Simply Hired Network (which content is republished on popular Job-Board like LinkedIn and MySpace) offer advertisements for just 9$(!) True, the site mentiones that it will be raised to 29$ soon, but that is still very cheap for the exposure you get. Because just publishing on LinkedIn alone costs 145$, targeting the same specialists.

  Here is an example: http://jobhunters.jobamatic.com/a/jbb/find-jobs

  I think this is only the beginning of a new era in online recruitment where prices will drop sharply and candidates will be able to use open groups or even blogs to view those vacancies.

  What do you think, is this the beginning of the end of traditional Job-boards?

  Regards,

  Raymond
