CollegeRecruiter.com Uses Podcasting to Deliver Employment Advice to Students and Recent Graduates (October 18, 2005 Press Release)

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Minneapolis, Minnesota — October 18, 2005 — Walk around just about any college campus these days and you’ll immediately be struck by how many students are walking around with white cords dangling from their ears. Virtually all of these cords are plugged into iPods, the portable digital audio players designed and marketed by Apple Computer. While many students are listening to music, some are listening to audio recordings. Today, career site CollegeRecruiter.com announced that it has taken a leadership role in the delivery of employment-related content to these plugged in students.

“College students today have greater access to information than any generation that has come before,” said Steven Rothberg, President and Founder of CollegeRecruiter.com. “They’ve grown up with cell phones so do not see them as being technology. They’ve been instant messaging for years so are entirely comfortable maintaining multiple, simultaneous conversations through these on-line chat sessions. And they appreciate the grace and power of the iPod by using it to relax, kill time between classes, and even learning. As the highest traffic career site used by students and recent graduates and the employers who want to hire them, we know that we are well positioned to connect with these students if we provide to them the content that they want, when they want it, and how they want it. Increasingly, that means delivering our content to their iPods via podcasting.”

Although Minneapolis-based CollegeRecruiter.com has only just started delivering employment-related content via podcasts, it already has dozens of recordings available for download through its podcasting download page at https://www.collegerecruiter.com/podcast/. And just like its already existing library of 3,500 employment-related articles and Ask the Experts questions and answers, CollegeRecruiter.com charges no fee for full access to its fast growing collection podcasts.

CollegeRecruiter.com is the highest traffic career site used by job hunting students and recent graduates and the employers who want to hire them. The CollegeRecruiter.com network of career sites is used by 5,000,000 visitors per month to find part-time positions, summer jobs, internships and career opportunities.
