Huuuuuuuhhhhh!!! (Frustration) I have been looking for a job for 3 months. 80% of the TIME CONSUMING applications/ resume distrubution is a SCAM!!! I have filled out at least 60 applications thru careernetworkjobs.com and I have been getting the same type of responses. ....Finish filling this out...and it is MORE advertisments, and yet NO jobs are calling. WHY IS IT THAT THERE IS NO NUMBER TO CONTACT someone from the career network. If they are legit, then why can't you contact anyone. What if I am a employer? I have worked for a recruiter in the past and they had recruiters calling for you to come in to meet them..... and even CONTACT information. NOT some BOGUS P.O. Box!!!! I am getting so frustrated with this job search process. I even got a email from a "Employer" telling me cash a check, keep 10% and mail the rest to a off shore account. WHY.Why.Why.Why!!!! Looking for a job is stressful enough, but WHY get job-seekers hopes up about FALSE employment oppurtunities?

I'm sorry that you feel our recruitment practices are not meeting your needs. I'm sure this is only due to a misunderstanding of us and our business. Allow me to clear up any confusion by explaining who we are and what it is we exactly do.

Career Network is a new job board that is free to use by both job seekers and employers. Currently, there are thousands of jobs throughout the country available for application on our network of employment sites. We actively market those opportunities to individuals who have previously expressed interest in receiving employment offers. This works as a benefit for our corporate clients as we actively reach hundreds of potential applicants who had not previously been introduced to the opportunity through traditional job ads.

To keep our services free to both job seekers and employers we do offer advertising verticals on the site. However they are completely voluntary and do not in any way affect job seekers' consideration for the listed employment opportunities. We act only as an intermediary between the applicants and the hiring companies, and do not interfere with the delivery of submitted resumes for any reason. To do so would jeopardize our relationships not only with our corporate clients but our advertising partners as well.

Once those resumes are delivered, the rest of the process is solely in the hand of the employer. The decision to hire, not hire, contact, etc. is theirs alone. If they receive a large amount of resumes, they may require extra time to respond to the applicants who did not make the cut. From personal experience, I have received that letter as long as six months after I applied for a position.

We do have a contact phone number for employers listed on the employer section of our Web site. However, that will get you in contact with our account managers who have no control over the status of your application. Like I said, that decision is out of our hands. If you are having technical issues accessing the site, please use the email provided.

Furthermore, let me assure you that nothing will be done with your personal information that you do not expressly authorize. Foremost, since you are applying for a position, your resume will be transmitted to the employer who will then consider you for a job based solely on your skills and education. Beyond that, we will only connect you with our promotional partners if you agree to it during the application process.

I hope this clears up any confusion you may have regarding our Web site and our recruitment services. Please feel free to contact us with any further issues or suggestions at info@careernetwork.us.com.
