[uf-new] hListing vs hJob

[Darren Bounds]

These sites are relatively irrelavent in the industry and therefore I
personally do not feel they should necessarily be cause to us steer in
any specific direction.

In ATS space you have global leaders like:

Vurv Technology, Inc. (http://www.vurv.com)
Taleo (http://www.taleo.com)
Kenexa (http://www.kenexa)

These are people who sell their solutions to the Global Fortune 500 as
well as small and medium sized businesses.

You also have the job boards like Career Builder, Monster, Dice, etc...

I represent Vurv and we definitely see value in defining a job
requisition standard which may or may not leverage existing
Microformats but could not be contained by hListing and hCard alone.


Thanks,

Darren Bounds
