We’ve written our share of blog posts about how blogging can enhance your employer brand and help connect companies with passive and active job seekers. Lately, blogs with their attractive niche audiences in tow, have taken a page from the Monster.com’s of the world and started their own hybrid blog job boards. BlogBoards, BlobBoards? 
It’s a great idea.
Well, how’s this for niche?
Problogger, well known to the blog community as a place to find great advice on creating, managing and monetizing your blogs just introduced their own blog job board just for bloggers looking for writing work and for companies looking to hire a blogger! We think it’s a great plan and we’d venture to guess that it may just become their most popular feature.
They have an intro price of $50 for a 30-day job posting (until September 5th). Get ‘em while they’re hot.
EXCELER8ion is where Shannon and Julian Seery Gude write on Social Media, Interactive Marketing, Technology and Internet Business Topics.

We’ve been successfully running ads on our job board for bloggers since last 2005. See http://www.CollegeRecruiter.com/insightblog/ . As a result, we have hundreds of students and other candidates writing for us.
Some of us old folk who are getting into blogging just now - still trying to find our way - cannot keep up! My God, what next? Blogs that dispense cappuccino fratte latte? What with uCheeze and now blogs as job boards and blogs on MySpace and pictures on Recruitomatic – it enough to drive me back to the print classifieds, yellow pages!

thanks for the link Julian!
Hi Steven, are your bloggers compensated with $ or from the exposure to potential employers? Regardless, have any gone on to write professionally or pursue a blogging career? I had fun reading some of their posts just now - there were some good insights and memories of ’starting out’ came back to me in a rush. Thanks for your comment!

Several have been extended offers because their posts were seen on the site. Several have landed writing jobs because of coaching they’ve gained on the site as well as exposure. Several have fine tuned their searches because of the things we offer. There’s a little bit of a lot for just about everyone (don’t want to overstate the case).
