Washington, D.C. – Associated Builders and Contractors (ABC) today launched Construction Job Network, an online service that connects construction professionals with available job opportunities in the construction industry. The web-based career center allows employers to submit job postings, and job seekers to post their résumés and, in some cases, apply directly online for jobs. The new site is accessible online at www.ConstructionJobNetwork.com.
“Our association promotes construction industry knowledge, networking and excellence,” says ABC President and CEO Kirk Pickerel. “Launching an online career center for professionals and contractors in the construction field is a natural extension of that mission.”
Jobseekers can create an account, post an anonymous résumé, search for jobs, set up personal email job alerts, browse a library of career advice, and direct questions to employment experts, all without charge. In addition, résumés will be posted on other job boards associated with Construction Job Network.
Employers can view résumés and post jobs under a variety of pricing plans. Further, the new online service offers employers added features that include posting job openings on other job boards associated with Construction Job Network, the option to include a company profile and logo with each job posting, and a pay-per-use résumé bank.
To visit the site, go to www.ConstructionJobNetwork.com.
