DiaspoCareers, Africa’s No1 employment website, launches its new mobile website

UGANDA, 19 April 2011– DiaspoCareers today announced the launch of its mobile website for jobseekers interested in employment opportunities in Africa and beyond. This move represents a unique opportunity to find jobs in Africa irrespective of where they are located in Africa and worldwide.

After the launch of our new job board we felt it was vital to offer every mobile user a quick and easy way of searching and applying for jobs on DiaspoCareers regardless of the handset they own. Our clever tech team have launched a mobile site which recognises the handset you are using, then automatically serves you a version of DiaspoCareers that is optimised for your device. You no longer have to wait for content to load or laboriously navigate from left to right to view the entire page.

There are other benefits too, namely privacy and mobility. Job hunting is a very personal activity, so it seems only natural that you should be able to do it in private and at a time of your choosing regardless of where you are. Time is also often wasted when sitting on a bus or waiting for a train, so you can now better spend it by exploring potential careers and salaries from the palm of your hand. Recent statistics have shown that more people are accessing social network websites via their mobile than a desktop PC, so it’s clear the demand is already there.

In the last 12 months DiaspoCareers has seen an increase of over 400% in mobile traffic, which demonstrates the need for a clear and user friendly mobile site. By keeping a close eye on consumer trends DiaspoCareers constantly evolves to ensure its users can find work in a way that suits them, so our mobile site is a welcome addition to the current job board site www.diaspocareers.com. Demand is set to become even greater over the next 12 months, so mobile developments will play a key role in our on-going strategy to ensure that we reach the right candidates for our clients.

By building the mobile site on the solid platform that powers our desktop site; we are able to ensure the user has the same great experience visiting DiaspoCareers via mobile as they do on desktop. Other than uploading your CV, every element of the job-hunting process is available to any user that has a mobile phone with a browser. From searching for jobs to managing your applications, a fully comprehensive and user friendly experience is offered.

To access the mobile site simply visit our website (www.diaspocareers.com/mobile) on your mobile as you would normally do from a computer. The mobile website allows you to: Register or Login as a job seeker, Search for Jobs, contact us and view jobs on DiaspoCareers.

We are constantly working on improving your mobile experience. So take time to visit DiaspoCareers on your mobile phone to see how the new site works. We are keen to hear what you think and any suggestions you’ve got so please leave comments below.
