job seekers using CareerSites powerful backend management tools. Designed

management, and billing for various revenue models.

The agreement with CareerSite will offer our newspaper affiliates a
tremendously valuable service for their readers, said Mark Chudzicki,
President and CEO of PowerAdz.com. Online recruitment is probably one of
the fastest growing e-businesses on the Internet today. With CareerSites
