The 2 companies in the title of this post have released a new website – cbsalary.com. The site is a competitor of the long established salary.com website of which I am a fan.
The CareerBuilder site has some interesting hooks to it including a direct link to current job listings on their board. If I am not mistaken, salary.com offers a comprehensive service that searches the big 3 job boards. There is a section towards the end of the free report that offers a comparison to similar profiles which was interesting. The similar jobs were close, but not quite exact. I searched on a Technical Recruiter position but the comparisons were for a general recruiter which is a big difference. The report does list benefits/perks for the profile which has some valuable information (laptop, cell phone, telecommute, etc.).
One thing I have to mention, cbsalary has a blog! And it is run by Dr. Al Lee who is a PhD in physics from Yale and goes by the moniker “Dr. Salary.” You’ll know that fact the minute you read a post there.
