Goal: Position SelectJobs as the company with wisdom and insight in the career and employment sector.

Success: The success of Boardroom Communications’ public relations effort was manifested in the acquisition of SelectJobs.com by Career Shop, a strategically beneficial move for both companies.

Over the course of several years, Boardroom Communications created tremendous media opportunities for the company through a series of surveys about jobs, careers, resumes, etc.

These on-line surveys and pitches by Boardroom Communications were featured by national media such as the Wall Street Journal, CNN, US News and World Report, Executive Female, Business Week, Information Week, Info World, Employment Review, Working Woman, Management Review, Business Week, Beyond Computing, Netware Connection, the Sacramento Bee, the Atlanta Constitution, the Chicago Tribune and the Chicago Sun Times. Naturally, the local press followed suit -- the Palm Beach Post, Daily Business Review, the Sun Sentinel, the Miami Herald, the Orlando Sentinel have all reported on SelectJobs.com.

Media coverage helped make SelectJobs.com attractive to a firm such as Career Shop, a lucrative merger was attained and Boardroom Communications was hired to represent Career Shop.
