CyberMedia and IT job market
CyberMedia's expertise in the job market goes back to late 1980s. As IT industry took roots in India, it was the Dataquest appointment ads (in the form of yellow pages at the back of each issue) that became the biggest source for IT recruiters. As, the business moved online, CyberMedia launched CIOL Jobs which transitioned to CyberMedia Dice after the JV. Over the last three years, this JV focused its energies to help customers source and hire the most qualified technology professionals and to provide those professionals with the best job opportunities in their respective fields.
