Changeboard.com sees traffic increase by 300%

The HR specialist jobs board, Changeboard, has experienced record growth in the last year. According to its recent ABCe audit, unique users jumped from 10,925 in October 2006 up to 35,070 in October 2007, meaning a 300% increase in traffic. Page impressions also leapt from 154,638 to 373,809 a month.

Richard Bray, account manager of Changeboard, comments: ìWeíve made huge strides over the past year due to our commitment to match the ever growing demands of the HR recruitment industry as it evolves.

ìIn response to employer attitudes regarding climate change and corporate social responsibility (CSR), where organisations are now looking to reduce its carbon footprint, as well as become more ethical, Changeboard has introduced ëCSRí as a new search specialisation.

Additionally, with government pressure for companies to boost employee health and look after the welfare of staff to help stem the rising obesity endemic, ëHealth & Wellbeingí has also been added as a new category.î

Other Changeboard developments include the launch of a new searchable CV database, increased marketing activity, and new partnerships with various media and other HR related sites including HR Director, Human Capital Management, HR Review and UK Recruiter.

ìDespite fears of gloomy economic forecasts, it seems that when it comes to recruitment in HR, thereís no sign of the market slowing down. In fact, those recruiters who are on top of their game, are using this as an opportunity to invest and expand in other markets wisely, as well as securing the best talent out there,î concludes Bray.
