TAOnline.com partners with RecruitUSA - 07/2001

Broadening job posting audience to include military community

Transition Assistance Online (www.TAOnline.com), the premier e-recruiting website for the military community, announced an alliance with RecruitUSA Inc. (www.recruitusa.com).

This alliance will provide RecruitUSA clients with access to an additional targeted career site that features thousands of individuals from the military community who are seeking civilian employment.

Through this alliance, employers and recruiters will be able to post jobs to www.TAOnline.com using RecruitUSAís proprietary PostMaster TechnologySM, which enables customers to write a job advertisement once and have it distributed to a network of thousands of web destinations and a selection of premium career sites. Visitors to www.TAOnline.com likewise will be able to peruse through a wider variety of job listings.

With todayís job market becoming more and more competitive, employers are attempting to locate job candidates who are well-trained and dedicated. Individuals who have military backgrounds meet these criteria, and employers can locate them in the TAOnline.com resume database.

ìMost people donít realize that almost 250,000 service members exit the military every year. More than 98 percent are high school graduates, over 36 percent have attended college, and service members are graduates of the worldís largest system of specialized professional and technical training operated by the Defense Department. In addition, there are hundreds of thousands of working military spouses and other jobseekers from the military community. Our site helps connect these qualified jobseekers with quality employers,î said TAOnline.com co-founder, G. Roderick Gillette.

ìThe addition of TAOnline.com to our network of jobsites brings a resource of potential employees our customers might otherwise have missed,î said Don Ramer, chief executive officer of RecruitUSA. ìIn the past, it has been difficult to tap into this segment of the labor pool. Although it is a large group of people, the fact that they are so spread out geographically can overwhelm an employer. TAOnline.com gives our customers immediate access to the very large number of employment candidates from the military community.î

ìWe are excited about this partnership with one of the leaders in hiring management systems. RecruitUSA will help us fulfill our mission of bringing awareness to civilian employers about the value of hiring former military personnel,î said Chris Gillette, director of sales for TAOnline.com.
