ZebraJobs is a joint venture between Ethiopia-based Info Mind Solutions and US-based Danya International Inc. The aim behind ZebraJobs is to make searching for a good job in Africa as easy and relevant as possible and thereby help to enhance the capacity of Africa’s most important asset, its people.
ZebraJobs is a search engine that scours the internet looking for current availabilities in all of Africa’s countries and then makes them searchable by keyword or by country. The goal of the site is to have more than 1 million job seekers registered by next year which is to include Africans in the Diaspora who wish to return to their home country thru the finding of a good job. Apart from allowing you to search for jobs, ZebraJobs also allows users to post a CV online and also to make an online profile that allows you to better manage your job opportunities.
Am sure the likes of Monster would be looking at a model like this but sometimes being first to market can make the difference. This site could be a great opportunity for both enterprise and non profits to make their presence felt on the continent. Maybe even governmental but I don’t hold out much hope for this. My only concern is that Africa as a continent is so vast how effective can this be, but hey it is a start isn’t it?
