She had two corporate sales positions to fill – one in Austin, Texas, the other in Seattle – but didn’t want to spend the crown jewels finding the right applicants. In the past, Meltzer would have placed ads in local newspapers and waited for up to a month to sort through all the resumes that landed on her desk. This time, besides running the want ads, she spent an additional $750 to have a computer do the searching at Careerpath.com, an online jobs database. CareerPath identified more than 600 potential matches in its resume collection, and within two days the pool had been culled to some 25 candidates. CareerPath combines in one place the help-wanted sections of dozens of the nation’s largest newspapers and allows job seekers to post resumes free. It is among the largest of a growing number of online services that help potential employers and employees find each other.
