The Employment category focuses on bringing employees and employers together. This includes resources and establishments engaged in one or more of the following disciplines:

• Recruitment and/or staffing services on behalf of employers


• Advice or assistance with preparation of resumes and portfolios


• Job search directories


• Career management

Excluded from this category are:

• Individual job postings (i.e. the "help wanted" section of an employer's website) are not listed in the Open Directory due to their inherent transient nature.


• Resumes/portfolios, recruiters and staffing services, and job search directories specific to an industry sector are listed according to the industry which they serve.


• Agencies and individuals which offer local employment services and regionally-specific job boards are listed according to the geographic area which they serve.


• Topics related to the management and training of existing employees are organized in Business: Human Resources.
