HOMESICK AUSSIES TURN TO JOBSDB.COM.AU FOR THE BEST JOBS ONLINE

Employers looking to recruit Australian expats and Australians looking for the best jobs overseas, are now able to take advantage of unprecedented job matching opportunities, thanks to a newly established joint initiative between JobsDB.com.au and Homesick.com.au, the No.1 website for Australians overseas.

Homesick.com.au is the website thousands of Australians living overseas turn to each week for news, shopping, information and recreation - and now career opportunities abroad.

Now offering companies the exclusive opportunity to target a lucrative yet hard-to reach group of expat Australians, Homesick.com.au and JobsDB.com.au are profiling a select group of "hot jobs" aimed specifically at matching Australians candidates living abroad with the best job opportunities in Asia, the USA and Australia.

The Homesick.com.au website has been growing in popularity ever since its launch in mid-2001 and has quickly gained a reputation as being "the place to visit" for Australians overseas. The site generates around 90,000 unique impressions weekly and receives good media coverage both within Australia and internationally. Visitors typically include Australian expatriates, business travelers, consultants on assignment overseas and public servants serving at foreign posts or Australians planning to travel overseas.

An Australian-run website, Homesick.com.au has been created especially to cater to the needs of busy Australians living, working and travelling overseas, who don't have time to trawl several sites on the net for all the latest information on Australia.

One of the most popular features of the site is the directory of touring Aussie artists and bands in various cities around the world. And Homesick.com.au also features an Online Australian Store, so Aussies overseas suffering withdrawal symptoms by missing out on Vegemite or Tim Tams can order up on their favourites and have them delivered worldwide within a few days. They can even order a supply of the classic green VB T-shirts or green-and-gold Wallabies jerseys for their next trip to the cricket or rugby.

So along with news, sport and current affairs from back home, it's no surprise that jobs are now added to the range of services available to Australians around the globe at Homesick.com.au.

Updated daily, the up-to-date content and broad appeal of Homesick.com.au is one of the main reasons for its success so far and the latest initiative with JobsDB.com.au, which offers premium job search services for expats, will now provide candidates and employers alike with the combined resources of two powerful forces in the expat job marketplace.
