World’s biggest jobs agency planned

What should be the world’s biggest on-line jobs agency is getting closer to reality with Employment Ministers agreeing to beef-up the EU’s job search network.

They want to have all EU governments advertise their vacancies on it, and want private employers to use it also.

In fact they say that it will be a must and only very specific exceptions will be allowed.

They are going to improve the way the site matches job offers with applicant’s CVs, and improve the likelihood of the right CV finding the right job offer.

There will also be helpful information on living and working conditions in each country, and help for jobseekers in putting together their application for work.

Now it will be up to the European Parliament to vote on the new Eures site.
