Jason Gorham
Jason Gorham
CEO,
CareerMeta Search.com

Jason S. Gorham has served as CEO for CareerMetaSearch.com, a first-of-its-kind online job board, since he founded the company in 2003. In this capacity, Gorham maintains complete management responsibility for the company including that for international operations, marketing, finance, product development, technology, and new business development. Gorham, a staffing industry veteran, brings both extensive experience and a renowned vision to the organization, having served in the field for more than 10-years. He has also created and currently maintains and further develops fourteen distinct online job blogs.

Gorham also currently serves as both CEO and Managing Director for Sharkstrike, a recruitment process outsource company whose unique services include, among others, name sourcing, resume database mining and recruitment consulting. Achievements throughout his career include the design development of the patent pending Push Postings™ technology, a keyword extraction technology that turns passive job seekers throughout the Web into interested, highly qualified candidates for relevant postings on the CareerMetsSearch.com job board. Gorham is also the creator of Rez-X™, an online resume exchange solution that allows recruiters to share a central resume amongst themselves.

Gorham’s proprietary Push Posting™ keyword tracking methodology greatly differentiates CareerMetaSearch.com from others in the space, as it allows the company to exclusively focus on passive, currently employed candidates or semi-active job applicants throughout the entirety of World Wide Web, and convert them to interested candidates for active job postings on its board. This novel “one-stop-shop” technology allows employers to save time and money by leveraging a single job posting to exclusively reach pre-qualified candidates and forego an otherwise voluminous number of applications from those who do not meet position requirements.

Specifically, Push Posting extracts keywords from job descriptions within the CareerMetaSearch.com network and dynamically inserts them into a variety of proven search engine keyword advertising methods such as Google AdWords™ and the like. In addition to increased productivity and operational efficiencies for the employer, this streamlined system facilitates a higher volume of qualified job applicants, all resulting in quicker, easier and more cost effective job placements – all of which maximizes an employer’s chance of realizing positive ROI with an online recruitment effort. Simply put, CareerMetaSearch.com is the only company leveraging this next generation technology in the online recruitment field.

Other of Gorham’s notable career accomplishments include serving as a board member for Segue Staffing, owning and operating a technical staffing company, and establishing technical staffing divisions for third-party entities.

Gorham is a highly regarded expert source among both the media and the staffing community. He is often called upon to speak at various industry events, having served multiple times as a recruitment panelist at Kennedy Information Recruiting 2006, among others.

Gorham is currently a member of the MIT Fire Circle. He earned a Bachelor of Science degree in criminal justice from Roger Williams University.
