PitchYourTalent.com – Job seeker have to pay??

Saturday, April 11th, 2009

A few weeks ago when i put my quakerecruitment.com campaign to Google Adwords, i’ve notice PitchYourTalent.com, never though that it belongs to Jobstreet.com, until my husband told me yesterday night. So i went inside register myself and try it out.

“PitchYourTalent.com is a service sponsored and currently owned by JobStreet.com.”

Their impressions in google ads is very good. Show all the time.

Personally,i found that there is characters limitations. Oh well, i have to shorten my description’s in my cv to put into their website.

But think about that, izit a good idea for job seeker? Job seeker have to pay to use PitchYourTalent after 1-May 2009

“How much do I have to pay to use PitchYourTalent?

You can sign up and create your Talent Profile for free. To list your Talent Profile on PitchYourTalent.com and make it searchable to the world – we charge a subscription fee. You may refer to the fee and options for subscription here, but note that subscription is currently FREE until 1-May-2009.”

All this while, jobstreet.com have been charging employers for their job posting & resume search. i think is pay back time for us the job seeker. I cannot imagine in this economy recession, job seeker is being charge to use their service.. unemployed and being charged?? Make any sense to you?

Lizard likes to look pretty also

Saturday, April 11th, 2009


Today, at my parent’s house, my dad show me this lizard and he told me why this lizard kept on looking at the shiny pot and go back to hide behind the tin can.

It’s very cute!. Several times this lizard will come and go and look at the shiny pot. I guess maybe he sees “another lizard” or reflection of himself.
