Monster Courting Nurses
In early January 2008, Monster Worldwide acquired Affinity Labs, a San Francisco company that builds career-related communities. Among their 7 communities is NursingLink. Resumes uploaded at NursingLink go into the Monster database, and jobs posted on Monster can appear on NursingLink.
Affinity Labs also hosts communities for government, technology, education, and law enforcement. Monster is going after candidates where they are — in social environments. This will inevitably make them even more dominant in the recruiting space, and help to build out their candidate database considerably. As such, Monster will become increasingly important to SourceSimple and all baseline sourcing services.
