New Share Tools for TalentOyster Connect Content

We have added some new share tools to the articles on our Connect content pages. There are Twitter and Facebook like buttons on all our articles like this or this.

We chose these tools because Twitter and Facebook seem to be the most popular tools as used by our readers. But if there are other share tools you'd like to see on these pages just let us know. Leave a comment or send us some feedback on our site.

New Blog - Diversity Employment

Because there are simply more topics to blog about then really could fit the audience of one blog we're pleased to announce that we have created a new blog, Diversity Employment which is aimed at recruiters, HR and hiring managers interested in workforce diversity.

The TalentOyster blog will continue to have items of interest to those looking for work as well as general site updates and information but if you're looking for more coverage of diversity hiring and employment issues then do check out the new blog.

Plenty of site updates

We've continued to make updates to our site, including in how our site landing page looks.

We have finished the revamp of splitting our site into four "portal" each focused on a different group of users for our site an we think it just makes our site that easier to use.

The areas are

  • Job Board - the place to search, find and apply for great jobs with some of Canada's most progressive employers

  • Employers - services for Employers interested in tapping in to Canada's hidden pool of talent

  • Campus - job listings and resources for international students in Canada. Positions listed include jobs for students as well as internships.

  • Connect - Resources and information for diverse candidates. Whether you are new in Canada, born in Canada or thinking of coming to Canada, you just need to Connect. Let's Talk. Let's Connect.



Also a reminder, our weekly newsletter has been revamped and is a great source for updates on our site, diversity employment stories in the news and other resources. If you aren't already a subscriber you should try it out.
