March 28, 2007 (PRLEAP.COM) Business News
Steamboat Springs, CO—The International Erosion Control Association (IECA) has launched a new career center aimed improving connections between the erosion, sediment control and stormwater management industries and the specialized workforce required to fill job openings in this field.

By teaming with JobTarget, an industry leader in job board development and management, IECA has expanded from basic classified listings to a full service career center offering advanced services for both job seekers and employers.

The center offers free resume postings for all job seekers. An anonymous resume feature enables them to list their experience and qualifications in a protected environment. By giving both active and passive job seekers the ability to anonymously post their resumes, the IECA career center allows job seekers to stay connected to the employment market while maintaining full control of their confidential information. Another new feature is the job alert system which provides e-mail notification of new job opportunities based on selected search criteria.

Currently, nearly 100 positions have been posted to the new IECA career center. Positions titles range from Grading, Erosion and Sediment Control (GESC) Inspector to Auto CAD Designer-Stream Restoration/LID to Staff Civil/Water Resources Engineer. Positions in the academic field as well as internships for students also have been posted.

“There is a wide range of employers seeking candidates with the specialized skill set that IECA members possess,” said Becky Milot-Bradford, association development director for IECA. “We are fulfilling our member’s requests for a quality career center while answering the needs of the industry.”

Employers are able to connect to this qualified pool of candidates risk free by searching the bank of resumes and paying only when they find a candidate who is interested in the position they have available.

“It’s a winning situation for both employers and job candidates,” said Milot-Bradford.
