Addressing a news conference at the Investment, Industry and IT Ministry in Valletta, Minister Austin Gatt said that before the launch of this service, people had to look for calls for applications in the Government Gazette. “It’s not the best reading material available,” he joked.

He said the major reason for setting up the portal was to make government jobs more accessible to people.

Die Geschäftsführer der fünf großen Online-Stellenmärkte jobpilot, JobScout24, Jobware, Monster und StepStone haben in einem Gespräch mit der Bundesanstalt für Arbeit (BA) in Nürnberg Möglichkeiten der Zusammenarbeit erörtert.

Die elektronische Stellenvermittlung der Nürnberger Bundesagentur für Arbeit wird möglicherweise noch teurer als bislang bekannt. Das geht aus einem internen Sachstandsbericht des Vorstandes zum "virtuellen Arbeitsmarkt" hervor, den der Spiegel zitiert.

'The decision on adopting enhanced HR procedures should come as a prelude to the full scale Federal Government HRMS implementation project due to start towards the end of this year', said Dr. Ali Bin Obood, the Deputy Director General of the Civil Service Bureau and Head of the HR Team. Dr. Bin Obood added that the prospective procedures would be in line with the recommendations of the comprehensive HR assessment conducted by eCompany, the UAE Federal Government partner for e-government implementation, and with the international e-government best practices for HR.

Job seekers can now post their CVs on the bilingual eJob portal (http://ejob.dubai.ae), previously servicing local citizens in the public sector only, and search for available full-time and part-time vacancies, while employers will be able to advertise positions and access a rich database of candidates, searching for those with the qualifications and skills needed for their businesses.

The appointment of the special e-HRMS teams took place at the first of a series of meetings between the Civil Service Bureau (CSB) and the UAE Ministry of Finance and Industry (MOFI) that will eventually witness the e-Human Resources Management System being implemented across the federal ministries in the UAE.

he Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) is hailing the success of its recruitment website www.jobcentreplus.gov.uk after it received a record 6.5 million job searches in one week. The department said the site now accounts for more than 14 per cent of the overall recruitment market, with more than 70 million job searches conducted via the site since the beginning of the year.

The objectives of the research detailed in the report were to: examine the priority given to the delivery of good customer service in general, and more specifically, to achieving the customer service target; identify obstacles to good customer service performance; identify lessons of good practice and consider how the national tier can better support the field in achieving good customer service more widely.

It’s a good example of active promotion for a government service which has had tangible results. With forthcoming Implementing Electronic Government 4 (IEG4) local e-Government submissions identifying online recruitment as a new requirement for Councils to adopt, local authorities can learn from the NHS case study.

In a FedBizOpps.gov notice, OPM last week said it will issue a full and open solicitation by July 31 for its jobs Web site at www.usajobs.opm.gov.
