OK, so it has finally happened.  We’ve talked about it for years, we’ve argued about it in the bar and in the board room:



“Facebook will always be for my personal stuff and Linkedin is always for my professional stuff.”



Not so…

I wanted to get a few recommendations of good quality job board software?  Anybody know of any inexpensive web designers or web design companies to design? 

Can anyone share their good or bad experience with their job board software?  Any companies to stay away from? 

Thanks for answering ....

Live Q&A on 1/15 With Our Sr. Resume Specialist
