HigherEdJobs Wins WEDDLE's 2011 User's Choice Award
STATE COLLEGE, Pa., May 11 -- HigherEdJobs, the leading source for jobs and career information in academia, was selected as a winner of the WEDDLE's 2011 User's Choice Awards. Now in their seventh year, WEDDLE's annual User's Choice Awards are the only accolades in the online employment services industry in which actual users -- those who are looking for employment and those who are looking for employees -- are able to vote for the employment sites they think work best.
"We believe customers count most," says WEDDLE's Publisher and CEO, Peter Weddle. "While pundits will always have their favorites, it's the people who use the sites who really know which are most helpful."
"We are very honored to receive the WEDDLE's User's Choice Award," says HigherEdJobs President and Co-Founder, John Ikenberry. "Our mission is to help higher education candidates and employers connect with one another. Receiving an award from our users is further confirmation that we are making a difference to the individuals and institutions we serve."
The winners were selected in balloting conducted throughout 2010 at the WEDDLE's website (www.weddles.com). Thousands of unique ballots were cast, and while they do not represent a scientific survey, they do recognize the intensity of support for the top thirty vote-getters -- the 2011 User's Choice Award winners.
