The Consulting Pulse Jobs Board

Taking a leaf out of our own books we are linking up with our friends at SimplyHired to publish our own jobs board here at Consulting Pulse.com.

This is the first of a number of specialized jobs boards that we will be launching over the next couple of months. With others focusing on more specialist areas of the consulting field.

We were toying with the idea of creating our own jobs board and launching it, and we still might do in the future. However, the benefit we get from tying up with SimplyHired is that they already have a bristling board filled with a lot of top quality appointments.

And the whole goal of this site is to provide value fro consultants, so this seemed like the best option to start with!

Why launch a job board into an already crowded market? Easy! Because the market needs niche players.

Let me explain a little. I am a seasoned job hunter, since starting my career I have worked with over 60 different roles, contracts and positions. This has taken me on a journey through 27 different countries, most industrial sectors and a variety of managerial disciplines.

And at no time did I ever get a job from any of the big players such as Monster.com or HotJobs. Every one of the roles I was able to get came from small, closely knit, network types of sites or tools.

So this is what we are going to build for our readership. A network of jobs posted by people who want consultants, and read by people who are consultants.

No surfing through hours and hours of possibly related postings. If you are a consultant, and you want a job, then look here!

Our goal is to be able to build on this through being able to provide a focal point for consultants and companies looking specifically for consultants.

Always interested in hearing your thoughts on what we are doing here. (So feel free to comment)

We have included a few categories that are not the norm on most job boards around the place. Categories like SaaS, Business Intelligence, Strategy and Executive; to try to cover all of the wide range of fields that exist within the world of managerial consulting.

I hope it is of use to you.
