Philadelphia, PA, June 20, 2005 --(PR.com)-- For the very first time in the history of the domain industry, Corporate Human Resources Departments have an opportunity to highlight their strengths and the vision of their company through the .jobs domain name.  The .jobs domain is sponsored by the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM), and has been approved by ICANN, to fulfill the needs of HR departments and HR professionals all over the world, and offered exclusively through authorized registrars.

Applications for your companyname.jobs domain names are now open at NamesBeyond.com, a leading ICANN accredited registrar and an authorized registrar for .jobs.

"The .jobs domain name has the potential to be one of the most powerful tools for future recruitment and to promote the mission and values of your company," said Uma Murali, President & CEO of NamesBeyond.  "For the first time, employers and potential employees can directly connect through a simple, easy-to-remember and advertise domain name - yourcompany.jobs."

EmployMedia, the registry for .jobs serves as the "wholesaler" of the .jobs operation, while SHRM's role is largely to ensure that the service meets the best interests of the recruiting community.

Companies can register the names of their firms, as well as extensions of their company name tied to their company location or job skills, or commonly known abbreviations or acronyms of their companies.  For example, Sony can not only apply for sony.jobs, but also for sony-usa.jobs, sony-style.jobs, sony-ps3.jobs, sony-marketing.jobs and sony-interns.jobs.

"HR Departments have a mandate to promote their company's brand, employability and culture in its communication to the labor market," said Uma Murali. "HR departments, recruiters and small businesses finally have the .jobs domain to quickly and memorably promote their company and its culture to candidates."

Names Beyond is offering a special incentive to organizations that are members of HR associations.  During the start-up period, companies from all over the world are eligible to reserve their brand names and ensure their online identiy in the .jobs domain is protected.
