Testimonials

GeoSearch is a wonderful web site for connecting employers with potential job candidates in the geospatial community. I have had more possibilities arise from this site than any other job searching site on the web. I really like the ability to upload a personal resume instead of filling the information out in a form, as it offers a certain uniqueness to each candidate.

Kathleen Crombez

I just wanted to extend my gratitude if nobody else has toward you and the others that operate the Geosearch Website. Especially in recently dim economic times, the small but important group of GIS professionals can turn to your site to search for opportunities. As a GIS professional that has had trouble recently in the job market, I wanted to take the time to say thanks for all you do. That and thanks for the add a while back.

Sincerely,

David J.
