Newish recruitment site in Australia JobX who promote their site is “all about giving you control and enabling you to promote yourself and network with others” is having a bit of an identity crisis. It seems they are not sure if they want to be a job board or a dating site!
How do I know this?
Check out http://perfectdate.jobx.com.au, the JOBX Dating Site.
Hat tip to my source on this news nugget.
Well, maybe they know more about dating than they do about online employment, which wouldn’t be too difficult.
Ah that’s not a real dating site!
@Jobx NZ well no of course it isn’t but a weird marking approach, what about http://50things.jobx.com.au?
Those guys at JobX always have had a warped sense of humour.
It certainly got a laugh in our office – was that the intended reaction or were we somehome supposed to tie that into a job search?
I notice the page defaults to (I am a) Man (seeking) Men …
If you follow the link at the bottom of the page (Designed & Developed by Daemon Group) it just gets more confusing.
I cant see how this is good for their business?
As an advertiser would you want to be connected with a business that is advertising in dating or porn? HR departments may need to evaluate their social responsibility by advertising through jobx
Daemon Group are their marketing consultants.
I think we’re are a bit too quick to pass judgement.
Delve a little further, you will find it’s just a joke site, presumably intended to draw attention to JobX. (although given some of the comments so far this might be backfiring).
Try a search and see what happens 😉
Kevin – very fair point although for some people time is money so I guess don’t spend much time trying to understand.
