JobsInLogistics.com serves about as niche a market as you can find in career websites, but in terms of addressing the needs of that targeted audience, the site really delivers. That was a logistics industry joke. A bad one, perhaps, but if you understood it enough to groan at its poor humor, JobsInLogistics.com probably has something for you. That’s because this is a site that specifically focuses on career opportunities in logistics, supply chain, transportation, freight forwarding, 3PL, distribution, purchasing and manufacturing. The site offers quite a bit of content for both job seekers and recruiters alike, with a clearly-organized and user-friendly interface that encourages web browsing.

Registration on JobsInLogistics.com is free for recruiters, although there is a rate structure in place for posting job openings. Still, recruiters can take advantage of Job Cloning and Candidate Tracker, online tools that the site boasts “reduce time in posting jobs and in reviewing and managing applicants’ resume responses”. Candidate Tracker is free to use, and stores resumes submitted for the recruiter’s jobs for 90 days. Recruiters can also organize their candidates using a number of criteria for quick and easy access when contacted from an employer for more information.

Job seekers can take advantage of most of the site’s tools without registration, or for free with registration; the only difference seems to be that a job seeker can post their resume to the JobsInLogistics.com database when they register. The site also provides resume writing advice and plenty of off-site links to industry-specific employers.

JobsInLogistics.com isn’t the most up-to-date site you’ll find; there are no e-newsletters to subscribe to; no RSS capabilities or blogs or forums. But for the audience it’s serving and the industries it covers, the extra bells and whistles likely aren’t necessary. This is a site that understands its purpose and knows how to drive its point home. And yes, that’s another awful logistics joke. Sorry about that.
