U.S.Laws May Make Online Job Hunting Harder

Posted by Zonk on from the hunting-down-that-scourge dept.

j00bar writes "CNN/Fortune is reporting that applying for a job online is going to get harder. 'New federal guidelines meant to standardize how employers track data on the diversity of their job-applicant pool are taking effect starting today for jobs at federal contractors -- and similar rules will kick in later this year at U.S. companies with more than 50 employees. And resumes and search approaches that worked perfectly well before may no longer do the trick.'"

    This applies to federal contractors begining today. It kicks in for pretty much everyone in the US (>50 employees) later this year.
