TORONTO – Thanks to a new partnership with on-line career site Workopolis, Rogers Wireless and Fido customers can search for job postings on their wireless device using Workopolis’ new made-for-mobile website.
Job seekers on the move must click on either the Rogers Mall or Fido Shop icon on their mobile device and select the ‘News, Sports & More’ category to search jobs from the main Workopolis site.
The companies have waived the associated data fees through May 31, 2009.
"The wireless device can be an indispensable tool to the increasing number of Canadians who are seeking work. Not only can they be available for calls from potential employers, they can now browse jobs from Workopolis directly on their handsets, for free until May 31, when they’re out and about," said John Boynton, Rogers Wireless’ senior vice president and CMO, in the announcement.
Workopolis says that they are the first job site in Canada to go mobile.
