dc.description.abstract | With the blooming of Internet, the number of Internet users is increasing rapidly. According to the latest data of comScore Media Metrix, until January 2007, the population (over 15 years old) of Internet has been nearly 750 million; the global Internet users’ average online time was 31.3 hours; Taiwan was ranked the fifth in the world by the online time of 43.2 hours. With the increase of the number of Internet users, online recruiting is becoming a new channel for seeking talents or jobs, and it grows very fast. According to the data of 104 Job Bank in Taiwan, in October 2007, the number of the talent-seeking firms was up to 150,000, and the number of the job-seeking members was nearly 4 million. As above, we can find out that e-recruiting provides both firms and job seekers a very convenient recruitment channel; however, the effectiveness of e-recruiting should be examined.
Therefore, the purposes of this study are to explore the current status of the recruiting websites, to compare the recruiting website content in Taiwan with overseas recruiting website content, and to conduct a survey to investigate the level of importance and satisfaction of e-recruiting website from users’ viewpoint. The recruiting website content in this study was adjusted from that concluded by Richark et al. (2004), and it was divided into three dimensions: website content, website design, and website functions. A questionnaire survey was conducted to investigate 275 people who found jobs via the online recruiting channel, the level of their satisfaction of using the recruiting websites, and the content they thought highly of. The results reveal that different users’ demands of recruiting website content are very similar; recruiting website content and functions have significant impacts on the users’ satisfaction. | en_US |
