• Industry profiles displayed statistics about various fields, and jobs are organized with this system for easier browsing.
• A salary tool allowed visitors to research the average income for a specific role in their area.
• Ample resources were available for employers to assist with hiring and training employees.

Cons:

Careers.org vs. Indeed:

Indeed has a region-specific version on the larger Indeed site. It is the largest online job board and allows employers to post jobs for free, with the option to sponsor a post for higher visibility. Careers.org was also free to use, but had a much smaller audience than Indeed, meaning that listings would receive less exposure.

Careers.org vs. Job Bank:

Job Bank is an official employment website provided by the government. The website is available in both French and English and is free to use. While Careers.org was also free to use, it was not a Canada-specific website and employers could post jobs based in any country. Job Bank lacked employer profiles, which could greatly impact the public perception of businesses.

Careers.org vs. Nexxt:

Nexxt is a large online job board with over 85 million visitors. There are four package options compared to Careers.org which had one, but Careers.org offered free posting. Nexxt offers exposure on social media as well as recruitment analytics, which Careers.org did not. Compared to Nexxt, Careers.org only offered a very basic hiring service.
