Extra Care 4 Careers (defining Job Search 2,0)

Extra Care 4 Your Career is a job search 2.0 program available July 15, 2008.

09/30/05 Tim O'Reilly offers the best clarification for Web Business 2.0 as to what a web 2.0 is and is not. If it's got a glossy graphic, maybe a starburst or style distinction, is that enough to satisfy the buzz? Nope. Using Tim's definition as a jumping off point the jobs and employment market itself must come to reach the Web Business 2.0 model as well.

Web Business 2.0 is not a proprietary site, broadcasting out, a traditional medium with manual response and minimal relationships. It's become an interesting mash of intellectual content plus open sourcing and collaboration. The spinning of Web Business 2.0 produces a speed, and a richness of business interaction.

So how does the Traditional Job Search and Job Search 2.0 Compare?
