CareerBuilder: Our aim is to be No. 1 in Romania

CareerBuilder, No. 1 in online recruitment worldwide, intends to outrank eJobs and BestJobs on a market appraised at nearly 8 million euros last year. “CareerBuilder enters new markets with the expectation of achieving market leadership within three to five years of launch. This is no different in Romania,” Farhan Yasin, President of CareerBuilder Europe, Middle East and Africa, told ZF. CareerBuilder, one of the giants of online recruitment, with 23 million unique visitors per month – launched operations on the Romanian market in the second half of last year, with around 1,000 jobs being available on the Romanian portal, from companies such as Procter & Gamble, Continental Automotive, Medlife, Cosmote, Microsoft, Adobe, Route 66 and Alcatel. BestJobs features around 5,800 jobs, eJobs- 4,300 positions, while Myjob has 5,500 offers, over 2,000 of which are abroad. “The decision to enter the Romanian market was based on the size of the labour market, the second largest in Central and Eastern Europe after Poland’s, on the rapidly expanding Internet audience and the presence of many large multinational companies who are already CareerBuilder clients,” Yasin explained.
