HiddenNetwork

The Hidden Network is an ad network concentrating on job ads. It’s not your typical ad network or a job board. As they claim - it’s the (somewhat) secret IT insider’s job board.

Jobs you post on Hidden Network appear as ads within a network of some of the most influential Web publications read by talented programmers. You can call it kind of Monster fused with Google AdWowrds. Good idea, a very good idea! That differentiates them from countless other job boards and ad networks out there.

How it works?

You need to create an employer account first. Creating the account is free, posting a job listing costs $299. After logging in you can create a job listing which will stay live on the network for four weeks. There is an interesting twist in the tale is that unlike a typical job board where aspiring candidates come searching for jobs or companies come looking for candidates, here the job itself pops up in front of the potential user when he is browsing his favorite forum or blog. HiddenNetwork does not have to spend money on advertising that Monster is spending because they don’t need to bring people looking for jobs to their site. That task has been left on the publishers.

Why to watch?

All of the sites in HiddenNetwork’s publisher network are hardcore programming/technical/geek sites visited quite frequently by programmers, geeks and nerds. If you are looking to hire some of them then HiddenNetwork is definitely worth having a look at. If you use their Network, the world’s most talented programmers will see your job opportunities while they get their daily fix of news and information. HR professionals at IT/Software companies must bookmark this site.
