Customized Jamit Job Board Example here WWW.WOOTGIGZ.COM

Went through 3 firms and three totally different GUI/theme/style before hitting pay dirt. www.wootgigz.com (did in India, I can send the firms name if interested)

Now the hard part...marketing and making it a viable solution.

I have a few things to settle before firing up the awareness creation engine....like revenue business model (a not so inconsequential item). Technically, I want to get a spidering solution for the side to alleviate that bloody manual part!

Justin, That is a sweet looking site. It hardly resemble Jamit at all. Have you thought of importing jobs from Indeed to get you started and make a few pennies a click?

thanks Dave. I was waiting on the xml import service from jamit. I was told I needed that..then noticed other jamit sites with indeed postings...kinda lost track. problem is my posting page is set up with a bunch of metadata fields that i wont be able to get from a feed....I think.

was just looking on web at a spider service for job boards called spidermount or something...jamit badly needs a built in spider bot toolkit/sdk or something...

do you know how the indeed import works?

Nice work Justin, I wouldnt have even noticed it was jamit unless you told us, it reminded me more of jobberbase.com system with the "full time" graphics.

Justin,
Would you mind letting me know the firm's name (in India) who customized your site? I'm getting ready to purchase Jamit, and I would like to have it customized, but that all depends on the price tag. Is there anthing additional you can offer me regarding the firm you used (language barrier, competence, etc.)? I used one company in India in the beginning, and ended up dropping them and my deposit.
Thanks,
James

James,

The firm is Net Solutions (www.net2solutions.com or www.netsolutionsindia.com) and the contact is Sameer Jain (sameer@netsolutionsindia.com). They are exceptional in every respect...truthfully. I had a not so great experience with a US firm and another with an Indian firm. NetSolutions had no prior Jamit experience but that mattered little from a tech competency standpoint. Most impressive...the quality of service and the fact that the NEVER missed a commitment date!! Not once. They price tag is even more impressive. I had them do the creative (design, logo, etc.) and a lot of integration and customization work and the price tag was sub $3500!

They communicate clearly, effectively and often. I give them a A+ rating.

Good luck,
Justin
