Jobg8 announced the launch of its first North American Job Board Summit.  The Summit  is for Jobg8 clients and those working in the Job Board industry and will take place on the 20th-21st June, 2013 in Chicago.

This is the second Job Board Summit and follows the launch last November of the highly successful European Job Board Summit, which was attended by 183 delegates from 18 countries.

Matt Hoffner, the president of Jobg8 North America said “The Summit will highlight 11 speakers addressing some of the biggest challenges and opportunities facing the job board industry. We are pleased to invite our friends and clients to a strategic meeting where  senior job board executives can listen, learn and actively engage in high level discussions on topics that are critical to our industry.”

The conference has four key themes:

  • What are the demographic and cultural changes that will impact the future of work or cause changes in what a job seeker will expect of their job board experience
  • What are the technology changes that are occurring in candidate matching, cloud computing and mobile technology that will create opportunities for job boards
  • What are the latest trends for traffic acquisition including real time bidding platforms, better leveraging social media and improving conversion from your own database.
  • Results from "The Job Board Doctor"- 2013 Survey results and Trends Analysis – comparing results and comments from job seekers, job board operators and recruiters.


Classified Intelligence, Founder Peter Zollman said this about the European event; “Our impression: Great event with great networking, great mix of participants, great sponsors. a very promising start for a new conference. We’re looking forward to the 2013 edition.”
