In a Cheezhead exlusive, Jobing.com has announced the acquisition of CanJobs.com, a Canadian-based job site compiling a network of more than 140 area and industry-specific domains in Canada.

This acquisition continues our focused ‘multi-local’ expansion strategy, dedicated to providing local recruiting solutions to specific local markets throughout the United States, and now throughout North America, Matos said. The CanJobs.com unique strategy of combining niche sites with local sites also provides employers with a two-pronged approach to finding qualified applicants: first through the skills sets the employer seeks and second by promoting the position locally.

For those keeping score at home, Jobing.com has expanded its business by acquisitions of Employcity.com, Coloradojobs.com, Jobsummit.com, the California Online Job Network, Rhinomite.com, Careers Colorado, and LocalCareers Network over the last 4 years.

Unlike the untargeted national sites, Jobing.com is dedicated solely to recruiting at the local level, connecting organizations with local people so they can build relationships and hire more effectively, said Matos.

CanJobs.com will continue to operate independently as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Jobing.com, and remain headquartered in Ontario with various offices opening throughout Canada to serve the local city and provincial recruiting needs.
