SeriousJobs.com grew out of our frustration with the high cost and lack of efficiency
with existing online resources in the placement industry. Each year these resources
have grown increasingly expensive and yet, at the same time, less valuable. This
cost/benefit degradation is true for both Job Seekers and Employers. Resume posting
for most of these sites are free, leading to a condition where these database become
massive. Candidates get lost in the enormity and few actually get calls from potential
employers. Employers are likewise frustrated because they are wasting time and money
contacting candidates who already have found jobs, have little or no experience,
have unrealistic expectations and desires, or simply are testing the market.
