Monster has reached an agreement with Yahoo's HotJobs to become the world's largest online career resource, beginning first quarter of 2011. Monster will become Yahoo's exclusive provider of career content on the Yahoo! homepage in North America.
Both employers and job seekers will have access to more talent and local presence as a result of this merger, and Monster predicts access to more than 43 million visitors each month, which is 88% more than their largest competitor.
Monster plans to create an integrated site, but for now, Monster and Hot Jobs operate separately.
If you have a Hot Jobs account, information such as your employment profile data, saved resumes and cover letter, and your most recent job alerts, will be transferred to Monster after you have consented. Any information not related to HotJobs on Yahoo! will remain with Yahoo!
