Monster Worldwide Appoints Sal Iannuzzi to Board of Directors

Monster Worldwide, Inc, the parent company of Monster, the global online careers and recruitment resource, today announced that its board of directors has elected Sal Iannuzzi as a member of the board, effective immediately.

Mr. Iannuzzi is currently president and chief executive officer of Symbol Technologies, based in Holtsville, New York. He previously served as the non-executive chairman of the board of directors of Symbol Technologies from December 2003 to April 2005 when he joined the company as chief administrative and control officer. An expert in achieving world-class operational performance and in leading large organizations, Mr. Iannuzzi is well-recognized for the improvements in business management and expansion, productivity, cost structures, financial controls, and reporting which he accomplished during his tenure with Wall Street firms. He also has significant experience working with federal and state regulators, including the Federal Reserve Bank, New York State Banking Department, Securities and Exchange Commission and U.S. Department of Labor.

Sal Iannuzzi brings tremendous operational skill and corporate governance expertise to Monster Worldwide and its board of directors, said Andrew J. McKelvey, chairman and chief executive officer of Monster Worldwide. Drawing upon his extensive experience overseeing internal controls and efficiency at large public enterprises, as well as his considerable achievements interacting with regulators and government agencies, Sal’s perspective and counsel will be valuable assets for Monster Worldwide, its board and all of the Company’s stakeholders. Given his intellect, integrity and expertise, I am confident that Sal will contribute to Monster’s continued industry leadership and long-term success.

During his nearly 30-year business career, Mr. Iannuzzi held a variety of leadership positions in audit, finance and corporate administration. After six years at KPMG and two years at Bear Stearns, he joined Bankers Trust/Deutsche Bank, where, over nearly twenty years, he held a variety of senior leadership positions, including Chief Administrative Officer, Chief Operating Officer for Europe, Chief Operating Officer for the Global Investment Bank, and Senior Control Officer for the corporation. In 2000, Mr. Iannuzzi joined CIBC World Markets, where for four years he served as Chief Administrative Officer with responsibility for all corporate and administrative functions in the United States.

With the appointment of Mr. Iannuzzi, the Monster Worldwide board of directors expands to eight directors. Six of the eight board members will be independent, consistent with the company’s corporate governance practice that a majority of directors must be independent.
