CHICAGO, ILLINOIS --CareerBuilder is now making it easier for employers with green jobs to connect with environmentally conscious job seekers.
    
The site, www.goinggreenjobs.com , will allow employers the ability to post their green, otherwise known as environmentally-focused positions, full-time and part-time jobs by skill sets, enhanced green job titles and categories, and geographic location.

Earlier this year the Obama administration marked more than $98 billion of the economic stimulus bill for energy and environmental projects.  Many of the projects will encourage the creation of green jobs.  According to the Pew Charitable Trusts, green jobs growth outpaced other job classifications by nearly 250 percent over the last decade, growing 9.1 percent between 1998 and 2007, versus 3.7 percent for the overall job market.

Job seekers will be able to use www.goinggreenjobs.com to find information on green job fairs and events, green workplace news and information, as well as advice for everything from writing a green focused resume to connecting with the right green opportunity. Job seekers will be able to post up to five different versions of their resume to increase their visibility to potential employers in a variety of environmental areas.
