Site's statement

Jobboard Finder’s opinion

Summary: Created in 2014, Amia Comunidad Judia is a generalist job board, with a focus on education and training. The idea is to enable jobseekers (and recruiters) to access the most relevant services for their respective goals. In fact, the job offers are far from the priority for this site. A more active approach is offered to recruiters and a more strategic one to jobseekers. As the name implies, the site is originally for the Jewish community, which is why you can find links to Israeli news on the main page. The site does a good job of being present on social media for 63 858 followers on Facebook, 3 321 on Twitter, 5 640 on Instagram, 31 704 on LinkedIn and 44 on YouTube. The main website can be translated into English (but not the job section) and has https:// security (and the job section doesn’t). Despite that, the job board alone attracts 90 540 visits a month.

Design: On the job board (which you can find through the ‘zone’ section under ‘employment services’), the search engine (zone and job category) has drop down options, limiting the keywords users can use. When the site is blue, it is for the jobseekers. When the site is red, the content is addressed to recruiters. On the homepage, some articles/news and categories are featured. In the job listing, the job descriptions are brief and there is no marketing. You can see the description in the listing, as well as other services above the listing (like creating a CV). There are no additional filters.

The job board objective: Amia is for Argentinians, and more specifically, Jewish Argentinians. That said, other recruiters and jobseekers are free to use the services.

Recruiter observations: To order the services through the site, you must contact the site. There are a number of different tests, diversity programs and sourcing services.

Jobseeker observations: Jobseekers can create a CV online, but the form is not translated by Google translate.

The job offers: There are currently 47 offers online.

Reactivity: --

Special features: the YouTube videos; the employment news; company news; testimonials; monthly employment advice; job search workshops; different tests; courses.

Verdict: Amia is first and foremost an association for the Jewish community, which means the outreach targets Jewish Argentinians, as well as other types of candidates. The services and courses are varied. More than just a job board, Amia offers creative solutions to recruitment and job searching problems.
