The US National Retail Federation announced the launch of Retail Jobs
powered by NRF, a recruiting and search tool developed for retailers and
job seekers. The job board will serve as a fundamental part of NRF’s
This is Retail: Careers, Community, Innovation campaign, which was
launched in April 2013 in an effort to broaden and enhance perceptions
of the industry.
“Whether in stores or corporate headquarters, retail offers incredible
careers in fields like marketing, finance, technology, loss prevention,
merchandising and management, and Retail Jobs powered by NRF is
tangible proof that our industry offers diverse and unique career paths
for some of the world’s most recognizable brands,” said NRF Foundation
Executive Director Ellen Davis. “Creating one job board for retailers to
showcase the array of career opportunities that are available will help
connect employers with fantastic candidates at all levels of the
spectrum.”
Retail Jobs powered by NRF, located at jobs.nrf.com,
will provide retail companies the opportunity to showcase the assortment
of positions they have available. In addition to job board postings,
employers have an opportunity to have their jobs featured in daily
emails to thousands of retail professionals via NRF and Shop.org
SmartBriefs. NRF, Shop.org and ARTS members will receive a special
member rate for posting their jobs. Retail Jobs powered by NRF is
powered by JobTarget, the leading provider of job websites and career
centers for organizations that serve niche audiences.
Students
looking for entry-level positions for a career in retail, as well as
retail professionals and all other job seekers, can post resumes
directly to the site for employers to search. Job seekers will benefit
from the targeted opportunities available and the option to post an
anonymous resume for retailers to view.
