The Marketing Career Network, or MCN, is a vast online resource that brings employers and marketing professionals together. In short, it is a massive job board that is all things marketing. There are many resources for job seekers as well as employers and it is all contained in one site. MCN also has many partners that include professional marketing organizations and marketing schools. This broadens the opportunities even further for job seekers and recruiters. MCN is where marketers go for education, publishing, certification and employment.
Partners
MCN partners are marketing schools, professional marketing organizations and other businesses that cater to the industry. Job seekers can click on a partners link that they will be taken to that partners site where they can research information, post a resume or view marketing resources. Employers can go on the sites and post jobs to recruit talent. This expands employment and recruitment opportunities even more.
Job Seekers
Job seekers are able to post their resume and browse jobs, but there is so much more. By clicking on the Services link, they can get information on just about anything they could want to know about the marketing industry. They can get connected to schools where they can learn more about marketing and organizations where they can get certified. The resources seem almost endless and offer the job seeker valuable information and services, whether they are new to the industry or a seasoned pro.
Since employers are able to come to this specialty website and view resumes, job seekers have a good chance of being seen by people in the industry. They are not dropped into a vast sea of resumes to be lost amid the postings of people who dont know marketing and dont care. When a job seeker logs on, he or she knows that all the job opportunities are related to marketing. That is the beauty of such a focused site.
Employers
Likewise, employers do not waste their time dealing with job seekers who have not training, experience or, worse, interest in marketing. For many marketing focused employers, posting jobs and recruiting talent on other job sites is like a shot in the dark. Much time is wasted in recruiters reaching out to prospective employees who are not interested in the opportunity or even the industry.
MCN cuts out the static and brings marketing talent in direct contact with marketing employers and recruiters. Less time is wasted so employers can find the talent they need and put them to work much faster.
Events
MCN also lists numerous events that are relevant to the marketing industry. The list is broken down by organization or association and a link is provided for each individual one. From there, the visitor can access that particular event list. The listings are in alphabetical order for easy searching. This is one feature that sets MCN apart from other employment sites. With its sole focus being marketing, it gives serious marketers a place to go when they want to take their career up a notch.
