FreeBug

FreeBug, an acronym for Free Board User Group, is available only to eQuest customers on an unlimited job posting basis for a small yearly management fee.

Groups of free job boards on the Internet are evaluated each month to determine their overall candidate traffic effectiveness. Performed through eQuest’s metrics and analytics tools each job board must reach a certain level of candidate responsiveness prior to becoming certified FreeBUG job board.

Last year over 1.3 Million candidates responded to job advertisements through the FreeBUG network.

eQuest established the free job board certification program in April, 2006 to continue to offer industry-leading recruitment products and services to its worldwide customer base. The program is the first job distribution company to harvest traffic trending data on free job boards and report these back to its users. Only job boards meeting eQuest's strict standards will be awarded certification and admission into the eQuest FreeBUG Network.

eQuest supports a global community of free job boards including:

In the America’s eQuest supports SimplyHired, Google-Base, MySpace, LinkedIn, the New York Post, Topix, Fox Station Groups (MyFox), TechRepublic, Perl.com, IEEE.com, and eBay’s new Kijiji.

In APAC the highly popular Recruit.net is utilized with key job boards located in China, Hong Kong, Australia, Singapore, India, Japan, Malaysia, and New Zealand.
