In our 2002 Electronic Recruiting Index, we
propose a plan to replace HotJobs in a fair amount of detail. That the initial
investment is in the $100M neighborhood is testimony to the vision and
cleverness of the pair at the top. The word on the street is that the hunt for a
replacement is on. Certainly, our phones have been ringing though we're pretty
happy where we are. The challenge facing the incoming CEO will be
extraordinary. There are three obvious properties that have not fully exploited
their opportunities in the Employment Space: AOL, Salary.com and Yahoo. Each
opportunity has unique positioning, audience and business requirements. Each is
a diamond in the rough, ready to be matured. In the case of Yahoo, there are a several key
sequential questions: Exploiting the Yahoo opportunity involves
building a business that could outstrip TMP's incredible growth track record.
But, anyone looking at the huge range of non-integrated offerings embedded in
the "My Yahoo!" package might be tempted to imagine a horribly flat
bureaucracy that will do little but resist integration. While gobs of traffic
will catapult HotJobs' into the stratosphere, the opportunity at Yahoo! involves
the existing base of users and the development of an interesting business
concept. Traffic is a second level story at best. The employment section of Yahoo has the
potential to be the largest cash producer ever seen in our industry. The
infrastructure required to really bring it to life, however, is hardly an
afterthought. As we speak, the labor market is shifting, the workforce is aging
and the labor shortage is coming. Building on the notion that a career is an
investment, Yahoo could easily wriggle into an interesting position as the
financial manager for its users. In the end, that would mean that HotJobs
changes Yahoo more than the opposite.
