Simply Hired Launches Site for the United Kingdom


MOUNTAIN VIEW, California, October 28 /PRNewswire/ --

- Expanding Vertical Job Search Engines in the United Kingdom

Today, Simply Hired launches an international job search website for the
United Kingdom (http://www.SimplyHired.co.uk). The site will include over one
million job listings aggregated from the leading job boards, content
websites, newspapers, organizations and company career pages throughout the
country. Simply Hired continues to be a comprehensive job search engine with
over seven million jobs worldwide and counting.

"The launch of the UK website is an integral part of Simply Hired's
effort to expand our mission in building the largest worldwide job search
engine," states Gautam Godhwani, Co-founder and CEO of Simply Hired. "We want
to continue making the job search process a positive experience globally and
leverage the successful business model we have built in the U.S."

Simply Hired is a vertical job search engine that aggregates and indexes
millions of job listings from around the Web. Pulling from hundreds of
sources, Simply Hired offers job seekers a "one-stop shop" for their job
search. Job seekers simply type in a keyword and location, and Simply Hired
returns relevant job postings, so users avoid conducting multiple searches on
various sites.

The SimplyHired.co.uk site also incorporates a number of advanced
features to make finding a job a more enjoyable experience. Job seekers can
utilize the browse tool to view jobs from specific occupational categories or
filter their results by location, job type, education and experience. Job
seekers also have the option to perform an advanced search to return job
listings that match specific criteria and have the ability to view only the
jobs added since their last visit.

"Simply Hired not only wants to provide consumers with a tool to simplify
their job search, but can benefit employers and publishers as well," says
Sachin Shah, Director of Product Management. "As we expand globally, we
intend to create solutions that will continue to benefit the whole Internet
recruitment industry."

For recruiters and direct employers, Simply Hired offers the ability to
add their jobs into the UK site through a job feed. They can also advertise
their employment brand via premium display ads that appear on relevant search
result pages. To express interest in including jobs, visit SimplyHired.co.uk
and click the "Add Jobs" link at the bottom of the page. For more information

For the publisher community such as job boards, bloggers and content
sites, Simply Hired can provide additional, relevant job listings to
supplement existing content. By including job listings on their sites,
publishers can improve their visitor engagement and increase traffic. Simply
Hired currently powers the international job channel for MySpace UK, and
supplements LinkedIn's job board with millions of job listings from Canada,
the United Kingdom, Australia, India, France, Germany and Spain. For more
