My-ijob.com partners with AOL (UK)

My-ijob is delighted to announce the partnership agreement between my-ijob.com and AOL(UK) to supply careers related video content to the newly created Careers Channel, due to launch on 01st September 2008.

www.my-ijob.com provides job seekers with an engaging method to see what itís actually like to work for their prospective new company, before they even start, whilst allowing companies an excellent medium to communicate their mission, vision and corporate values.

Trials on the site have seen an excellent response from job seekers, with the level of interest in those vacancies with videos attached is almost three times that of those without video content attached.

The partnership also sees an integrated online launch campaign managed by Advertising.com, the campaign to launch the service will use Advertising.comís network to reach an estimated 31million users in the UK, which represents around 91% of the UK internet population.

Video for recruitment and talent attraction is fast becoming a standard and itís hardly surprising when you consider the latest industry figures;

Internet traffic to video sites grew 178% from Feb 07 to Feb 08*
87% of UK internet users watch online video**
UK internet users spent 9.7 billion minutes watching online video in Dec 2007 (that's 5 hours a month on average)**
