At this point in time where recession has claimed the brunt of people finding jobs like crazy, even the big companies need a boost as far as filling the open job positions they require today. Today, most companies are hesitant on where to place their ads, costs of which is a derivative that holds them back. But now, Beyond.com offers an app which can eventually cover a wider area of potential candidates, perhaps referring to the number of people who are going gaga over iPhone use today.

Employers and recruiters not only gain increased visibility to their job postings, but they can also access valuable articles and information on recruitment advertising and other HR-related topics. Job seekers can use the app to search jobs by keyword and location, view job details, forward jobs to friends and bookmark jobs. In addition, users can browse career articles for advice and tips on a variety of topics including job searching, resume writing and interviewing.

The iPhone was indeed made for a lot of things and apparently, this new app focuses more on helping corporate and business recruiters fill up their needs. Whichever way you look at it, it is a benefit for both companies and job seekers we have today.
