CPGjobs and American Herbal Products Association Join Forces to Build Powerful New Job Site

Partnership gives AHPA members more connections and features

PASADENA, Calif. (May 5, 2008) -- CPGjobs, the consumer packaged goods industry’s leading recruiting resource, has launched an online partnership with the American Herbal Products Association (AHPA). The association’s new “CPGjobs powered” Job Bank went online today at www.ahpa.org.

“The AHPA Job Board’s unique focus on herb-related career opportunities has always made it a valuable resource for job hunters,” said AHPA President Michael McGuffin. “Partnering with CPGjobs allows us to enhance our distinctive offering among the numerous job boards in the industry while providing users with a more robust and far-reaching platform.”

The partnership with AHPA is the second agreement with an industry association announced by CPGjobs in recent weeks. Last month the company launched a new job site on behalf of the Network of Executive Women, the consumer products and retail industry’s largest diversity group.

CPGjobs President Michael Carrillo said, “This affiliation further cements our relationship with the consumer packaged goods industry and provides AHPA members with an expanded pipeline of diverse candidates and new online functions and features.”

The American Herbal Products Association is the only national trade association devoted to herbal issues. Representing the core of the botanical trade -- including growers, processors, manufacturers and marketers of herbal products -- its mission is to promote the responsible commerce of herbal products. AHPA committees generate self-regulations to ensure the highest level of quality with respect to the way herbal products are manufactured, labeled and sold.

Founded in 1999, CPGjobs is the consumer packaged goods industry’s leading recruiting resource, combining high technology with personal networking and support. More than one hundred top corporations use CPGjobs and its CPGjoblist websites, including ACNielsen, Coca-Cola USA, Colgate-Palmolive, Frito-Lay, Hershey Foods, Hitachi, IRI, Nestl? USA, Nokia, Revlon, Unilever and the Walt Disney Company. The firm is affiliated with Indeed.com, TopUSAjobs.com, nowHire.com, TheLadders.com and other recruiting services and networking websites.
