Myers launched the company from a spare bedroom in his condo, and then quickly moved it to Atlanta's Bohemian Inman Park neighborhood. The company grew and began developing a web presence in 2001 as sites like Monster.com, Headhunter.net, and HotJobs.com were achieving success selling job postings. TalentZoo.com soon emerged as a leading niche job board, and was named by ''Forbes'' as "Best of the Web for niche job boards in 2002." Talent Zoo has been quoted in the ''Wall Street Journal'' and ''New York Times'', as well as various trade publications such as ''Advertising Age'' and ''Fast Company''. Rick Myers was voted one of Atlanta's "40 Under 40 Most Promising Young Stars" by the Atlanta Business Chronicle in 2006. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Talent Zoo」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
