With many of the 2.2 million people out of work in the UK relying solely on the internet to find a job*, a new web TV channel will offer expert advice to jobseekers to help them find a job online, where a labyrinth of over 10,000 job boards and social networking sites dominate.
The CareersCast (www.careersiteadvisor.com), will launch on Wednesday June 3rd at 12:30pm, with its inaugural live videocast featuring experts from the recruitment, internet and social networking industries.
Following on from the success of the innovative website, Career Site Advisor, CareersCast will offer jobseekers a chance to learn directly from experts such as Luke McKend from Google about how to find a job online says Career Site Advisor co-founder Keith Robinson.
�The recruitment industry has undergone a revolution since the first job board launched in 1994, but many jobseekers are in this market for the first time and may never have looked online for a job before,� Mr. Robinson says.
Experts participating in the Career Site Advisor livecast include:
� Luke Mckend � Google: Finding the right job when searching on Google
� Andy Headworth - Sirona Consulting: Manage finding a job through networking
� Don Leslie � BLT: How to best approach a recruitment firm � what should you know
� Dave King - Shares his experience of being unemployed and online job seeking.
