Atlanta, GA November 29, 2006 – ComputerJobs.com, the second largest IT focused job site and winner of numerous WEDDLE’s User’s Choice Awards, has announced its acquisition by JobServe.com, the UK’s leading internet recruitment site.

JobServe Managing Director and founder, Robbie Cowling said, “I am never satisfied with the status quo, and our acquisition of ComputerJobs.com along with our previous purchase of ComputerWork.com and CareerBoard.com provides us with the ideal platform and user base for our expansion into the US”.

“JobServe dominates the UK market, is the second largest IT job site in Australia and has shown a sincere interest in expanding into the US,” explains Mike Gilfillan, founder and CEO of privately held ComputerJobs.com, “Robbie is a true visionary who also runs a very customer focused organization which we found to be a perfect compliment to our long term growth strategy. Combining our resources will create an even more powerful recruitment resource for both job seekers and employers in the US and abroad.

”ComputerJobs.com is headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia and was started in 1995 to focus solely on IT recruitment. It has since expanded nationwide to become the second largest IT job site in the US, helping more than 1.5 million IT professionals locate jobs. For more information visit - www.computerjobs.com.
