NEW LONDON, CT (PRWEB) October 29, 2005

JobTarget, an Internet-based job board management company, has announced an exclusive agreement to power the online job board for the American Meteorological Society. The job board was launched October 24, 2005 and can be found on AMS's website at http://careercenter.ametsoc.org.

The American Meteorological Society implemented the job board on their website to help job seekers in the meteorological community find new employment opportunities. The new job board allows members of the society, and site users, a place to post their resumes for free. Along with a resume bank, the site offers listings of career opportunities in meteorology and other related fields. This job bank is available for all job seekers to search.

The service offers AMS a number of advanced features. These include a Job Alert system that notifies job seekers by email of new job opportunities that match their search criteria and an anonymous resume feature that enables job seekers to list their experience and qualifications in a protected environment. By giving both active and passive job seekers the ability to anonymously post their resumes, the JobTarget service allows job seekers to stay connected to the employment market while maintaining full control of their confidential information.
