Review:
Established in 2010, Conservation Job Board has over a decade of recruitment experience in the conservation, environmental, and ecology sectors. The global career platform offers employers access to a large, specialized audience of over 100,000 conservation professionals, but has a limited reach in Canada.
Conservation Job Board offers a number of valuable recruitment features, including social media promotion and email job alerts. However, the platform's free plan has a limited duration and reach. In addition, the platform lacks a resume database and caters primarily to the U.S. job market.

- Employers can add their company logo to job posts to help attract candidates.

- The platform is more affordable than competitors, such as Conservation Careers and ECO Canada Job Board.
Cons:

- Employers are limited to three free postings per month.
- The platform lacks a resume database of candidates for employers to browse through.

Conservation Job Board vs. Conservation Careers:
Although Conservation Careers is based in the U.K., it receives more website traffic than Conservation Job Board and features more local listings, making it a better platform for Canadian employers. While Conservation Careers is the costlier option, it offers a resume database and partner website syndication, which Conservation Job Board lacks.
Conservation Job Board vs. ECO Canada Job Board:
ECO Canada caters specifically to the Canadian job market, whereas Conservation Job Board's presence is limited in the country, making the former the better option for local hiring. Both platforms feature social media promotion, however, Conservation Job Board is much more affordable thanks to its free job posting plan.
Conservation Job Board vs. Canadian Environmental Network (RCEN):
Both RCEN and Conservation Job Board promote job ads on their social media channels. Although RCEN lacks a free job posting option, it does allow small companies that cannot afford to advertise their vacancies to place ads for free. Moreover, RCEN has a larger presence in Canada than Conservation Job Board, making it better for local hiring.
