Abstract: A method of matching job candidates with jobs in a specific city or region includes the steps of creating an accessible database, such as an Internet web site, which is specifically representative of a city or region, and a particular career field, e.g. the career field might be Information Technologies and Services (“I/T” and “I/S”, respectively). Job candidates with skills or training in that career field who are interested in the specified city or region will come to the web site and post their qualifications in a specific skills matrix which incorporates very specific skill, competency and experience components. Employers can also enter positions in the same skills matrix format and operate a search engine which efficiently matches job position with candidate. As a result, job candidates can quickly and efficiently view all jobs available for their specific skills matrix in that city or region.
