TheLadders Recognizes Best In Business With New ELITE Program

NEW YORK, March 15, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- To commemorate and celebrate the most active and engaged individuals in its vast network of more than 35,000 employers, online job-matching service TheLadders today announced the launch of TheLadders ELITE.

TheLadders ELITE will recognize a short list of exceptional employers in its most popular recruiting markets – New York, San Francisco, Atlanta and Chicago – representing the top 1 percent in each market. Each ELITE employer is hand-selected, based upon their TTM performance (Trailing Twelve Months, immediately prior to the list's announcement), as well as their demonstration of outstanding citizenship within TheLadders' community.

"We have been experiencing exponential growth since announcing Passport, our free solution that allows employers to search for qualified candidates, post unlimited jobs and manage their applicants," said Alexandre Douzet, CEO and co-founder of TheLadders. "However, we realize that we are only as good as the depth and breadth of our ecosystem, so we created TheLadders ELITE to show our appreciation and commitment to our true power players, who serve as the driving force behind our thriving job-search community.

In addition to prestige, TheLadders ELITE will enjoy the following benefits:

• Development input and early access to products in beta
• Discounted price, early registration, and preferred seating at TheLadders fall conference
• Thought-leadership opportunities
• Exposure in TheLadders social media, as well as coverage in Marc Cenedella's weekly newsletter, which reaches nearly 6 million members
• Networking opportunities with other ELITE members
• Complimentary ELITE merchandise

All 2013 ELITE members will be recognized throughout the year at JobMobile events held in New York City, San Francisco, Atlanta and Chicago. Exclusively hosted for TheLadders ELITE and recruiting thought-leaders, JobMobile will highlight and celebrate innovations and strategies in mobile recruitment.

With thousands of active employers using TheLadders in the New York metropolitan area, it is the company's most popular recruiting market, making it the ideal location to kick off the JobMobile event series. On March 28, 2013, more than 100 recruiting professionals from some of the region's most prestigious agencies and corporations will be inducted into TheLadders ELITE.
