target marketing executives
 CPGjobs has launched the first of more than a dozen planned specialty websites that will target industry executives in marketing, sales, category management, market research, trade marketing, operations, finance, HR and other categories. CPGmarketingjobs.com went live in June and other websites will follow suit in July and August.
“These specialty sites will help increase traffic and attract new candidates by offering targeted job openings and services.” says Michael Carrillo, president of CPGjobs. “We expect them to quickly catch on with candidates.”
He added that employers will appreciate the new specialty sites even more. “By expanding our presence on the Web, we will spread our client’s job openings further and faster than ever--and there is no additional charge for this service to either employers or candidates.”
