(PETERBOROUGH, NH - Feb. 11, 2008 - Tarsus Group) HR professionals faced with the difficult task of outplacement in their organizations have free access to a new resource to assist the jobless. TalentManagementTech.com (TMT), the world's most comprehensive online and searchable directory of talent management technologies, features listings of career sites and industry professionals, available for perusal at no cost.

"Most professionals only know about the largest job boards, which advertize loudly," said RD Whitney, founder of TalentManagementTech.com and CEO of sister site www.Onrec.com/US, both part of the online publishing arm in the U.S. for U.K.-based Tarsus Group plc. "However, savvy career coaches will encourage individuals to dig much deeper and include niche industry and job function career sites as part of a job search campaign."

The TMT Directory lists more than a thousand firms that offer technologies and services for the talent management professions, and anyone who has a professional profile on TMT may also create, enhance and expand his or her company's listing in the TMT directory. Through its affiliation with Onrec.com, Online Recruitment Magazine, the Onrec 2009 Conference and Expo (www.Onrec.com/Expo2009) and other global media properties belonging to Tarsus, TMT is able to reach hundreds of thousands in the talent management industry. Furthermore, the site marshals the very latest in Web 2.0 functionality to create a free online community that helps improve search engine optimization (SEO) for professionals in human resources and recruiting and in talent management technologies and services.

"The landscape of job boards has changed dramatically since the last economic downturn," said Whitney. “While large sites remain influential, a host of niche job boards, industry job portals, association sites and job aggregators are available as resources -- and usually free of charge. HR professionals can assist exiting employees by pointing them in the direction of these career management tools."

"HR professionals should be familiar with the new generation of job sites," Whitney concluded. "Fortunately, TMT features a great many of them in its extensive online directory of talent management technology that help HR professionals manage the entire lifecycle of employees, including these employees' outplacement."

Whitney encouraged talent management professionals to register at TMT, which is free to do and prompts the system to generate an e-mail that provides further instructions on how to create and enhance a personal profile and post content to the site.
