EmploymentCrossing Launches VolunteerCrossing, Which Seeks to Gather and List Every Volunteer Job Opening
June 09, 2008    |   PDF version  PDF version
VolunteerCrossing, an innovative job-consolidation website, has been launched by EmploymentCrossing, one of the world’s largest job-search sites. VolunteerCrossing is specifically designed to find and list volunteer jobs. By consolidating every volunteer job from every job website, VolunteerCrossing seeks to provide job seekers with every volunteer job in one place.

Pasadena, CA — Volunteering traditionally has been a seasonal or part-time practice for many, but today competition is intense for full-time volunteer jobs. There are numerous active volunteer jobs, and VolunteerCrossing works to direct all such jobs to its database of employment opportunities. In fact, VolunteerCrossing was launched with a large number of active volunteer jobs posted on its site.

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the employment growth rate for volunteers over the 2006-2016 decade is projected to be 13%, faster than the average growth rate for other occupations. Staff volunteer opportunities should be best for those who are formally trained and experienced, according to the bureau’s forecast. Also, since many people leave these types of jobs after short stints, the need for newly recruited volunteers will always exist.

''In this market it is extremely hard to get a job with a recruiter, and recruiters typically work with very few companies,'' says Harrison Barnes, founder and CEO of VolunteerCrossing. ''Job openings that are not widely known or publicized are the easiest jobs to get, and our researchers scour numerous sources for those kinds of jobs.''
In what is perhaps a reflection of the current volunteer job market, according to Barnes, the most popular searches on the website have been:
  • volunteer jobs
  • volunteer job
  • volunteer job description
  • volunteer jobs for teens
  • volunteer coordinator jobs
  • volunteer coordinator job description
  • volunteer job descriptions
  • summer volunteer jobs
  • volunteer coordinator job
  • teen volunteer jobs
  • volunteer jobs for kids
  • hospital volunteer jobs
  • paid volunteer jobs
  • animal volunteer jobs
  • volunteer management jobs
Unlike other job boards, VolunteerCrossing focuses solely on volunteer jobs and boasts that it has more job listings than any other volunteer job board in the world. Barnes emphasizes that VolunteerCrossing is committed to finding new sources of jobs daily.

''There is an astonishing number of volunteer job openings out there. We want to find them all,'' he says.

VolunteerCrossing charges job seekers $29.95 to look at its volunteer job-opening research. However, it is currently offering a free, seven-day trial to allow users to familiarize themselves with the service. The free trial is available to everyone on the site’s registration page for a limited time.

Why People Prefer VolunteerCrossing to Other Job Sites
"Using people and sophisticated technology, we search tens of thousands of employer websites, newspaper classified sites, job boards, government sites, public interest sites and more looking for jobs for you."
Using salespeople they call employers and try and get them to pay hundreds of dollars for a job posting
We bring all of the jobs we find into our database.
The job site only posts jobs in its site that companies pay to post.
We filter all the jobs and show you what we find that matches your interests.
They only bring in the jobs to their database that employers pay to post on their site.
We keep a low profile (we do not advertise) and only allow subscribers on our site so there are fewer applications for the jobs we find.
The job site allows any job seekers with an Internet connection, free access. It aggressively advertises the job site to bring as many job seekers as they can to each job, so employers are flooded with applications and will pay to post again.
