To attract tech talent, the Greater Austin Chamber of Commerce with Experience Inc. today launched AustinTechSource, an online talent community.
The focus of the site is to attract mid-to-senior level technology workers to the Austin region. The site allows employers to post openings, review resumes and connect directly with qualified job-seekers. The site has 2,000 jobs seekers and 37 companies including Bazaarvoice, Microsoft and Google registered so far.
“Economic growth flourishes when employers are able to couple a favorable business climate with the right talent pool,” Clarke Heidrick, Board Chair, Austin Chamber, said in a news statement. “As a new talent initiative of the Chamber, AustinTechSource will support all Austin companies, big and small, with their goals of efficiently finding topnotch, experienced tech talent.”
