JobBoardGeek, the podcast about connecting candidates and employers is back again with the 8th episode hosted by Steven Rothberg, Founder and Chief Visionary Officer of College Recruiter, and Jeff Dickey-Chasins also known as the Job Board Doctor along with guest speaker Dom Jackman of Escape The City.
Steven and Jeff kick off the episode with some discussion around Snagajob’s recent $65 million dollar loan. While Jeff is puzzled as to why a mature job board would need a loan, Steven comes up with a reasonable explanation.
Dom Jackman joins our hosts to share the origin story of Escape The City and its mission of helping workers get out of the corporate rat race to find meaningful jobs. Besides having job listings, the website offers a multitude of services including courses, content, and events for job seekers.
The topic of B corporations is brought up. Steven gives props to organizations that say they will make the community better and then go on to prove it. Dom explains some of the pros of being a B corporation including using B corporation guidelines to help with internal decision-making and having no issues with finding new talent for his company.
The discourse shifts as Dom details the difficulty of custom building his website. Jeff gives some suggestions to job board industry beginners on how to navigate the creation of your own job board website.
