Vertical Job Search Engines are Job Search Engines with a Difference. Vertical Job Boards is a new way to Index Jobs freely from employers sites, Manpower Consultant Websites, Traditional Career sites etc all at the same time. Like any other search engine, a vertical search engine also is a door to information, but vertical search engines tend to streamline information easier and most importantly at one stop.

The success of Indeed, Simplyhired, Jobster evokes introduction by many players with respect to Asian / Indian context as well. Recruit.net, adopted job aggregators / job metasearch site first in Asia and later followed up by creating the Indian Version as well India.Recruit.net. Bixee founded by ex-Yahoo employees which is now a part of MIH.

Yesterday, I came across another IT Vertical search engine, Gladoo which is currently in Beta Testing Phase. Gladoo has struck the right notes by targeting the IT Industry and this site offers one stop search access to jobs by aggregating job listings from all major job portals, classified sites, recruitment agenc ies, and corporate websites. The look and feel is very Web 2.0ish and has been created by Avake, a Technology company who have their roots from the Silicon Valley. Gladoo can also collect Job Listings from your Career Site, all you have to do is fill this form, their spiders will do the rest.

I am also glad to see that India’s leading Portal, Rediff has also started its Jobs Search Engine, which I will be covering in the future posts.

If you are asger to know the best Job Search Aggregators, you will find them on The Job SearchVertical’s list and Eric Shannon if you are reading this post, you now have few more to add in your list.
