Jobs Abroad Bulletin

Review:

The Jobs Abroad Bulletin publishes an international blog and newsletter for traveling and seasonal workers in search of industry insights, community forums, and new job opportunities. The platform's job posting process is simple and with its free plan, employers can reach a targeted network of candidates at a fraction of the cost.

The Jobs Abroad Bulletin is missing some key hiring tools, such as resume searches and job ad distribution, but it has a good foothold in the U.S. and may be a good option for both local and global recruitment efforts.

Pros:

• Employers can use the job board to advertise a wide variety of part-time work, internships, and volunteer opportunities.
• The platform offers a free job posting plan.
• Jobs Abroad Bulletin has a premium posting package that includes a placement in its newsletter for added reach.
• Prominent companies that have used the job board include Habitat for Humanity, Sunsail, and Au Pair in America.
• The job posting process is simple.
• Employers with many vacancies to fill can purchase a discounted featured listing option that includes 12 job slots.

Cons:

• Pricing is not available in U.S. dollars.
• Vacancies are not immediately published and it may take a few days before they appear on the job board.
• The platform lacks a searchable resume database, applicant tracking tools, and candidate matching services.
• Listings aren't shared to the site's social media pages or distributed to other job boards.

Jobs Abroad Bulletin vs. SeasonalJobs.com:

While Jobs Abroad Bulletin and SeasonalJobs.com both advertise part-time work in the local job market, the former has a global reach. Unlike SeasonalJobs.com, Jobs Abroad Bulletin offers a free job posting plan, but it lacks some key hiring tools offered by the former at $49.00 per post, including social media promotion and employer branding.

Jobs Abroad Bulletin vs. Occupation Wild:

Occupation Wild primarily lists outdoor-focused roles, whereas Jobs Abroad Bulletin advertises seasonal work in a larger variety of industries, including education. Both sites offer featured listings, but Jobs Abroad Bulletin is the more affordable choice with a free posting plan, compared to Occupation Wild's $110.00 per post per month.

Jobs Abroad Bulletin vs. Summer Job Finder:

The two competitors' feature sets are quite similar, including a free posting plan, bulk job ad discounts, and featured listings. However, Summer Job Finder provides better employer branding tools and a searchable resume database. Both Summer Job Finder and Jobs Abroad Bulletin facilitate global postings.
