Founded in 2000, EmploymentScape (formerly Juriscape) has quickly grown into one of the world's most specialized and effective groups of companies catering to the careers of professionals and students. Since its noteworthy beginning, EmploymentScape has aggressively built on its solid reputation, dominating ever more employment services with companies focusing on student loans, resume services, career publications, mass-mailing services, and industry-specific job boards, among others. Seven years later, EmploymentScape oversees more than 15 independent companies that aim to improve the career journeys of professionals in all industries.
EmploymentScape began its operations with the launch of BCG Attorney Search in 2000, which catapulted the company to the forefront of the U.S. legal recruitment industry.
Next, encouraged by the success of BCG Attorney Search, in September of 2002, EmploymentScape saw the launch of another affiliate: Legal Authority. This company utilizes innovative and targeted direct-mailing strategies to help attorneys and law students apply for and find jobs across the United States.
The success of both of these industry-specific affiliates spawned even more successful companies. Responding to the need for comprehensive information about national and international legal job openings, LawCrossing was launched in July 2003. With more than 80,000 jobs online and growing, this site is the world's most comprehensive legal job board. Thousands of law students, lawyers, and legal staff visit LawCrossing every day to browse for jobs and exciting law-related career news and articles.
Aiming to assist law students with consolidating their law school debt, EmploymentScape next launched Law School Loans in January 2005.
Soon after, JD2B was born in May 2005 in response to the growing demand for legal information online. JD2B's website is fun-filled and interactive and presents news, resources, blogs, and several other features for law school applicants, law students, and recent law school graduates.
To provide specialized research information to the legal community, EmploymentScape expanded once again, adding Attorney Research Group in August 2005.
Only a few months later, in November 2005, Attorney Resume commenced business as a highly specialized company concentrating on writing professional resumes and cover letters for attorneys and law students.
Law Firm Staff initiated operations in January 2006 as a recruiting company tailored to meet the growing job-search needs of legal staff professionals.
In keeping with its rapid-expansion plan, EmploymentScape launched two more affiliates in March 2006: EdFed and Judged. EdFed is an educational financing company that offers a variety of loan consolidation services to all types of students. This was one of EmploymentScape's first ventures to cater to people outside of the legal community, and it has been a major success. During this time, the CEO and management of EmploymentScape saw how much they were able to financially help law students, and their thoughts turned toward helping all students — not just future attorneys — in other ways.
In addition, when Judged was launched in 2006, it became a must-see website for those who wish to venture behind the scenes of top law firms and law schools across the United States to see what is really taking place.
EmploymentScape continued to rise as two more services, SellingCrossing and Graduate School Loans, initiated their business operations in 2006.
SellingCrossing, a sister website of LawCrossing, is a sales job board containing the most diverse collection of active sales jobs in the world. Furthermore, it is a uniquely searchable and regularly updated website offering great sales information to job seekers in the United States.
Graduate School Loans is dedicated to helping graduates with loan and consolidation options featuring competitive rates.
EmploymentScape launched Hound.com and Medical School Loans in the first quarter of 2007. Hound.com is a revolutionary job search engine that tracks down jobs listed on a variety of employment sites worldwide. It is unique because it exclusively showcases jobs from employers' career pages, which is usually where most current jobs can be found. Medical School Loans provides customized financial services to medical students and doctors seeking student loans for medical education, consolidation, and other benefits and services.
Also during 2007, EmploymentScape expanded its resume- and cover letter-writing services to all professionals in all career industries with the birth of ResumeApple.
In addition, this same year brought the formation of EmploymentCrossing, the main hub for a groundbreaking and expansive group of industry-specific job boards inspired by LawCrossing and SellingCrossing. Within months, EmploymentScape took on and conquered the ambitious task of launching more than 30 individual job boards under EmploymentCrossing, including AdvertisingCrossing, PRCrossing, MarketingCrossing, HealthcareCrossing, AccountingCrossing, BiotechCrossing, MoneyCrossing, ConsultingCrossing, EngineeringCrossing, HRCrossing, ManagerCrossing, ManufacturingCrossing, OperationsCrossing, RetailCrossing, TechieCrossing, CustomerServiceCrossing, LawCrossing UK, EducationCrossing, ArchitectureCrossing, ConstructionCrossing, TransportationCrossing, BlueCollarCrossing, ComplianceCrossing, BusinessDevelopmentCrossing, PharmaceuticalCrossing, HospitalityCrossing, AdminCrossing, ProjectManagementCrossing, QAQCCrossing, and SciencesCrossing.
