Teacher site tesjobs.co.uk expands SMS service.

.

tesjobs.co.uk, the specialist recruitment site for teachers, is set to expand its SMS job alert service from Vodafone to O2, TMobile (Virgin & One2One) and Orange networks.

Introduced to the site in March to add value to tesjobís service, the Vodafone service has proved popular with teachers, offering them an easy way to be alerted when new jobs matching their search profile are advertised.

Patrick Roberts, Advertisement Director, says of the introduction of the additional networks, ìWith many schools still having unfilled vacancies, we want to make it as easy as possible for teachers to find out about the jobs which schools are advertising with tesjobs. SMS offers an ideal service, letting teachers know about new vacancies without the need to log onto their PC which can be difficult for them during the school working day.î

Patrick adds, ìAlmost 25,000 of the 216,000 unique visitors to tesjobs.co.uk each month have already signed up for our email alert service and so the potential for SMS is huge. We see the expansion of SMS as part of our continuing drive to provide the best value and service to both our advertisers and jobseekers.î

As one of the UKís most successful specialist recruitment sites, tesjobs attracts over 6.6 million page impressions a month (ABCe March 2002). It is also rated as one of the top 10 recruitment sites in the UK by Hitwise.
