There’s no doubt that Vault provides a vast amount of useful information for recruiters and job seekers alike. From simple job listings and the ability to post resumes to more complex functionality such as employee surveys, salary research, career forums and much more, Vault is a comprehensive and robust information warehouse.

Vault offers a general job board for employers to post open positions for a fee, a free HR newsletter and‚ employee surveys. Employers can post internships for free to the site. A community section of the site offers a forum where topics are listed and members of the site can interact with others‚ by reading and posting‚ messages. In addition Vault offers a “Buyers Guide”, which offers a comparison of‚ recruiting and HR related products and services.

Vault offers job seekers the full capability to search nationwide job listings and apply online, provided they have registered and have uploaded a resume. Similarly, researching salaries is only available to logged-in members, and many other levels of information can only be accessed with a paid membership.‚ Vault attracts heavy student traffic to it’s site‚ offering a‚ campus marketing program that delivers an online “career library”‚ with guidebooks,‚ company profiles and articles all aimed‚ at helping students launch their careers.

Vault memberships are both fee and free depending on what you want.‚ Vault membership provides “insider” access to employee and salary surveys that are searchable by location, company name, industry type and more. Paid members can also find out interviewing tips, company quality of life rankings, tools to review and evaluate resumes and cover letters and quite a bit more. Without the membership, job seekers can still get a snapshot of company profiles, and can also access a wealth of information, career tips, white papers, etc., but paid membership, however, is the only way to truly open up the Vault.
