Boliven JobsPlus™ Enables Fast and Free Recruiting and Hiring of Leading IP Lawyers and R&D Professionals, as well as Fellows and Interns from Top Universities

Free job posting service helps recruiters, hiring managers, as well as executives and in‐house counsel reach 50,000+ top professionals, students, and “passive” job seekers and service providers.


NEW YORK, New York – October 27, 2009 – Boliven, a leading open innovation professional network, is happy to announce the launch of its newest product, Boliven JobsPlus™. Recruiters, hiring managers, as well as executives and in‐house counsel can now post full‐time, fellowship, internship, and service provider opportunities for free, and members can freely search and browse thousands of high quality, high‐paying job and work opportunity listings from the world’s most innovative companies and institutions.

“JobsPlus™ is different from traditional job boards and posting services for three reasons,” explained Thomas Lehrman, Founder and President of Boliven. “First, JobsPlus postings reach not only professionals and students actively seeking jobs, but also the so‐called “passive” job seekers, professionals who are currently employed or already serving established clients but who may have an interest in a new work or client opportunity. We reach this unique audience by displaying JobsPlus postings next to relevant search results of our 50,000+ unique monthly visitors – whether they be using Clinical Trials, Legal Proceedings, Publications, Patents, SEC Filings, Trademarks, or our other searchable database products.”

“JobsPlus™ also enables members to post not only full‐time opportunities but a diverse range of short term opportunities, such as fellowships, internships, and new service provider opportunities through a single, easy‐to‐use tool. Finally, a JobsPlus™ posting automatically targets potential candidates and service providers in the Boliven Network by geography, profession, keywords, and other member attributes, enabling recruiters and project managers to fill positions and opportunities much more quickly with the top talent already in our network.”

What Makes JobsPlus™ Different?
Free job posts – JobsPlus™ allows members to post one free job posting and earn job posting credits for new members they invite who join the Boliven Network. There is no limit to the number of credits a member can earn. Alternatively, members will soon be able to purchase JobsPlus postings.
50,000+ leading IP lawyers and R&D professionals each month – The Boliven site currently has over 50,000 unique visitors each month, and the Boliven Network includes members affiliated with leading universities, law firms, companies, and government agencies, including Cambridge, Columbia, Cornell, Duke, Harvard, MIT, Oxford, Stanford, Yale, Covington & Burling, DLA Piper, Foley & Lardner, Kirkland & Ellis, Nixon Peabody, Ropes & Gray (Fish & Neave), DuPont, GlaxoSmithKline, Genentech, General Electric, Intel, Johnson & Johnson, McKinsey, Microsoft, Nokia, Procter & Gamble, Toyota, and U.S. Department of Energy Laboratories.
Full-time, part-time, fellowship, and new client opportunities – Our members are at different stages in their careers with some seeking internships, others full-time opportunities or fellowships, and still others seeking client leads. JobsPlus™ makes it easy to post a wide variety of salary, commission, or short-term work opportunities that are then efficiently presented to our network of leading students, researchers, and professionals.
Geographic, profession, and keyword targeting – A JobsPlus posting reaches the right audience within our network of leading professionals and institutions because we place listings based on the kind of professional most likely to fill it, their location, and keyword information that appear in member profiles.
