New website helps employers recruit social care workers

CareJobFinder.org is an innovative, free service to help employers contact people actively looking for work in social care.  It has been launched as part of a national TV advertising campaign to promote work in social care by the Department of Health.  The website features prominently in the campaign materials.

Endorsed by the National Care Forum, social care employers can register to use the service at www.carejobfinder.org/join.  Employers will receive the contact details and work preferences of prospective recruits in their local area. Employers then have the option to contact prospective recruits directly and begin their standard recruitment processes.

With TV adverts starting on Monday 8th February, this could be the best free recruitment opportunity for the care sector in 2010.
