Update:
Careers.org is no longer operational. This article is for legacy purposes.
Pricing:
Careers.org aggregated job posts published on other websites, so employers didn't pay anything for their posts to show on Careers.org.
Review:
Careers.org was a job aggregator that gathers over 2 million job postings from over 20,000 job boards. The site had a large, international audience, with local directories for the U.S. and Canada. It featured a range of career tools and resources, including a job search function. However, employers could post job listings directly to the site.
Pros:
- Job resources included industry profiles, salaries, and career advice.
- Job posts were listed in over 200 countries around the world.
- The site featured a dedicated career directory for the U.S., Canada, and other countries.
- Included thousands of educational resources including profiles, programs, tuition, and requirements.
- Aggregated job postings from over 20,000 job boards.
- Over 2 million job listings were available to active job seekers.
Cons:
- Employers could not post their jobs directly on the website.
- Applications were managed via partner sites.

Careers.org vs. CareerOneStop:
Employers could not post jobs directly to both sites, but CareerOneStop allows you to post via National Labor Exchange's (NLE) website. CareerOneStop aggregates job postings primarily from the NLE and is only available in the U.S., while Careers.org gathered job posts from over 20,000 job boards and had an international audience.
Careers.org vs. CareerBuilder:
While both sites were international job boards, CareerBuilder is favorable to employers as it has active job posting, a recruitment platform, an applicant tracking system, and a large audience. However, CareerBuilder has no free job posting package and is more focused on recruitment, lacking the career and tools that Careers.org provided.
Careers.org vs. Jobvertise:
With both platforms, job seekers could search job listings for free; however, Jobvertise allows employers to post jobs directly to the site and take advantage of the additional promotional features. While Jobvertise offers resume searches, it lacks the career resources and tools of Careers.org provided.
