SEATTLE — April 18, 2006 — Jason Goldberg, CEO of Jobster Inc., today announced a series of promotions and a new hire intended to position Jobster for continued exponential growth in the online job search and recruiting industry.

Jim McGee joins Jobster as senior vice president of Jobster.com. McGee’s mandate is to establish Jobster as the premier consumer destination for online job search.

Burman holds an MBA from Harvard Business School and a bachelor of science from the University of Virginia.
