May 12, 2011 – CareerBuilder has acquired JobsCentral, a job board in Singapore that also has a presence in Malaysia. Uniting CareerBuilder and JobsCentral will bring a wider array of recruitment and career solutions to Singapore's employment community.

Its gross domestic product is projected to grow four percent to six percent in 2011, according to the Monetary Authority of Singapore. “Singapore has a prosperous economy, pervasive Internet use and a very low unemployment rate,” said Matt Ferguson, CEO of CareerBuilder. “It's an ideal market for the online recruitment business and our new partner JobsCentral has an impressive track record. Combining CareerBuilder's global resources with JobsCentral's expertise in the Southeast Asia recruitment space will bring an even greater level of service to Singapore's employers and job seekers.”
