For the very first time in the history of Domain industry, Corporate Human Resources Departments have an opportunity to highlight their strengths and the vision of their company through the .jobs domain name. The .jobs domain offers an exact destination for job seekers (i.e., companyname.jobs), and provides the HR function a consistent method to communicate and promote HR (including jobs) information. For potential job seekers, your companyname.jobs domain clearly tells them how to get to your career page than to search the main corporate web page for the careers site.

The .jobs domain is sponsored by SHRM, and has been approved by ICANN, to fulfill the needs of HR departments and HR professionals all over the world, and offered exclusively through authorized registrars, starting on June 19, 2005. In 2004, I became CEO of NamesBeyond (www.NamesBeyond.com), a leading and accredited domain name registration company. NamesBeyond is the first ICANN accredited registrar authorized by the .jobs registry to register, promote and market .jobs all over the world.

As a HR professional myself, I have conversed with many HR professionals who are often frustrated by the inability to provide an exact destination (i.e., a “jobs” page) that restricts the ability to communicate and otherwise effectively carry out the organizational strategy HR is charged with in our communication to the labor market. Your corporate .jobs site will be one of the most powerful tools for future recruitment and to promote the mission and values of your company.

I have directed my team to create a HR friendly registration process to ensure that your companyname.jobs is registered quickly and conveniently. Any organization that provides written proof of their status as organization that employs people can register the .jobs domain name. To pre-register your companyname.jobs, just visit us at www.NamesBeyond.com. For your convenience, a registration form is attached.

Email me at uma@namesbeyond.com should you have any questions – or just send your registration form to our corporate Human Resources Specialist’s attention. Remember, the start date is June 19, 2005.

Warm Regards,
