This week, we are kicking off our Jobs of the Week feature to highlight Atlantic Canadian tech and startup openings that have been posted on the Entrevestor Job Board, which is powered by Qimple.
Entrevestor and Qimple last month launched this job board, which helps to match job openings and candidates in the Atlantic Canadian tech and startup communities.
Until Jan. 31, you can post job openings on the site for only $25 each.
We highlighted jobs in Moncton on Monday, and today Halifax is in the spotlight. We’ll feature other locations Wednesday. Going forward, we will highlight the most recent job postings in our “Jobs of the Week” column each Monday.
We hope this proves beneficial for the community and helps our startups in their search for talent.
