New York, New York - February 28, 2003 - David
Adler, founder and CEO of BiZBash Media and Laurel Touby,
founder and CEO of mediabistro.com, announced today
that they have teamed up to launch a boutique job board
on the BiZBash.com site serving the local and national
hospitality, special event and meeting industries. The
new BiZBash.com "Find a Job, Post a Job" site focuses
on both full-time and part-time positions in sales,
management, planning, production, and service jobs on
both the vendor and client sides of the hospitality,
meeting and event industries.
The site will be free to job seekers and have a "satisfaction
guarantee" for job posters-they won't pay for the ad
if they don't receive qualified responses.
"We are thrilled to be working with mediabistro.com
to serve a market that has needed a dynamic job board.
mediabistro.com has become the standard in the media
industry employment niche by supplementing users' online
experience with face-to-face networking and training
events. We will follow that model as well," Adler says.
Richard Aaron, CMP, CSEP and president of BiZBash
Media will take on a similar role for the BiZBash.com
Find a Job Post a Job site. He will organize both networking
and training events for all event-related industries.
"mediabistro.com will power the BiZBash.com Find a Job,
Post a Job site, and will concentrate on delivering
the right candidates to prospective employers when they
need them, and will provide all the personal service
that goes along with a boutique approach to job boards,"
said mediabistro.com's Touby.
BiZBash Media, founded in 2000, is the authoritative
source for essential information about event marketing,
meeting and event planning, and business entertaining.
