Although Job.com’s reusable job slots drive eagerly searching candidates to a company’s job openings, employers and recruiters can be proactive throughout their hiring process by searching for candidates in Job.com’s resume database.

When searching resumes, Job.com’s members may save their custom created searches and set up resume search agents to automatically run the searches they’ve saved and send matching resumes directly to their email on a daily or weekly basis.
