CareerBoard Partners with Northeast Ohio Nursing Association
Cleveland – The Northeast Ohio Nurse Practitioners (NEONP) and CareerBoard have partnered to provide an online career center for nursing professionals in northeast Ohio. The site can be accessed at www.neonp.org.
NEONP, an independent association of advanced and certified primary healthcare professionals, will add the career center on their Web site in an effort to better serve their members with access to local job opportunities. The career center will also offer area employers a solution to better target nursing professionals with job postings and banner advertisements.
CareerBoard will provide all the back-end technology that powers the career center, which retains NEONP’s look and feel. The service is free to job seekers.
“Our top priority was to quickly add lasting value to our Web site to benefit NEONP's professional members and to help attract new members,” said Steve Fitzgerald, President, The FitzGerald Group, Inc. (speaking and retained as Community & Member Relations Consultant to NEONP). “By partnering with CareerBoard, we feel that we've accomplished both.”
By utilizing CareerBoard’s technology, employers are able to post jobs via an online account. Jobs are instantly posted to NEONP’s Web site, as well as the CareerBoard network of sites throughout northeast Ohio.
"CareerBoard's focus is to strengthen our community by bringing local candidates and local employers together as easily as possible," said Peter Tuttle, president of CareerBoard. “Partnering with NEONP enables us to better serve Northeast Ohio's nursing community and employers by delivering the area's best employment opportunities right to NEONP's Web site.”
NEONP went through a rigorous process in deciding what solution to partner with when creating a career center for their Web site.
“In evaluating our online options, we zeroed in on three key criteria: ease of use, best job search results, and a painless technical integration into our existing website,” said Fitzgerald. “CareerBoard scored well in all three assessments.”
