It’s a pay-per-click model for accessing resumes.
Rumor has it that Monster is quietly testing a system where employers pay-per-resume every time a record is clicked via a search of their resume database.
If anyone knows anything about this or has access to screenshots, feel free to contact me at joel@hrseo.com.
Although unsubstantiated, such a system makes sense. It would play right into Monster’s strengths vs. the commoditization of job content that is Google, Craigslist and others: Their resume database (and traffic).
By trading job posting revenue for a pay-per-click resume database strategy, they’ll certainly buy themselves some time fending off the inevitable future of low-cost and free.

With so much recruitment buzz around OFCCP lately, why would this be a good move? In the new world, it is my understanding, that a recruiter needs to review and disposition each resume that is returned in a defined search.
Wouldn’t a PPC model be a very expensive proposition for any Monster client that has OFCCP requirement responsibilities?
