The Employment category focuses on bringing employees and employers together. This includes resources and establishments engaged in one or more of the following disciplines:
- Recruitment and/or staffing services on behalf of employers
- Advice or assistance with preparation of resumes and portfolios
- Job search directories
- Career management
Excluded from this category are:
- Individual job postings (i.e. the "help wanted" section of an employer's website) are not listed in the Open Directory due to their inherent transient nature.
- Resumes/portfolios, recruiters and staffing services, and job search directories specific to an industry sector are listed according to the industry which they serve.
- Agencies and individuals which offer local employment services and regionally-specific job boards are listed according to the geographic area which they serve.
- Topics related to the management and training of existing employees are organized in Business: Human Resources.

If your company covers job listings for a specific area of the world, please send your listing to the appropriate Regional category.

The Job Search category provides listings of employment sites, job portals, and sites which provide Job Seekers with information which specifically relates to finding a job, as opposed to career related information or resumes.
The Job Search category is broken down into: Entry Level and Internships, Industries, Interview Advice, Job Fairs, Seasonal, and World-wide.
Closely linked are the Recruiters and Executive Search categories which list search firms that do not specialize in one type of job or one type of industry. For industry specific search firms look in the category for the specific industry. (e.g. Business: Industries: Information Technology: Employment: Recruiters)
Please do not submit individual resumes.
This category is for retained executive search firms that are not industry or functionally specific and conduct retained searches. If your firm is industry specific please go to Business: Industries: and look for the appropriate industry listing. Most have a category for Employment which contains a category for Executive Search. Please submit your listing to that category. If your firm is functionally specific, i.e. Accounting, Human Resources, etc., please conduct the same type of search and submit your listing accordingly. Please do not make multiple submissions or repeatedly submit your site over a period of days. Sites are normally listed only one time in the Open Directory. Sites which make multiple submissions to the category will be deleted.
No resumes are accepted into this category. All individual resumes are to be submitted to the appropriate functional or industry linked resume category. Please select the appropriate category and submit your resume to that category.
