www.challengerlist.com
is an online
community for Human Resource professionals. It's goal is be a forum whereby
people working in human resources can (1) Find open positions all over the world,
(2) Report open positions to others within the community they have heard about,
(3) Report the latest news about their peers such as when they move to a new position,
start a family, win a golf championship or any other information that
you think would be of interest to your peers.

It evolved from a simple list of human resource jobs that we at Challenger, Gray
& Christmas, Inc. compiled as our executives and consultants in the field heard
about them. Once we started developing a list of open positions, we began receiving
calls from search and human resource professionals around the country to let us
know of other positions they had available or heard were available.

As the Challenger List evolved, it become more time-consuming for our staff. As
a consequence, we decided the easiest way to maintain and distribute the information
was to create a website where interested people could go and look over positions,
add new information and in other ways self-maintain. Of course, we will still manage
it to some degree in order to make sure the information is as accurate as possible,
to maintain confidentiality when requested and to add new features as good ones
are devised or suggested. |
Some of the features currently available include:
Complete Positions. The positions
listed under the Full Positions category have either been gathered directly by the
Challenger, Gray & Christmas staff or have been entered by someone in the community
who had complete information about a position. There are many required fields that
must be completed in order to list a position in this category. Positions in this
category can be confidential either by company or contact, in which case you will
need to contact a member of the CGC staff to get further infomation about them.
Wiki Positions. The positions listed
under this category are positions which someone in the community has heard about.
They may not have full information about them, but they know that a position has
opened up. We encourage you to review these positions and if you have additional
information, add it to the position so that everyone in the community can benefit
from your knowledge.
Moves. The Moves list is another
example of the community adding information for the benefit of everyone in the community.
If you know that someone has moved from a position at one company to a position
at another company, add it to the Moves list. Everyone benefits when we know where
are peers have gone.
If you see additional features needed on the site, please contact us. We'll review your ideas and if they can be implemented we'll do our best.

In order to review positions on the site or to add positions, moves or make comments,
you need to register.
We require registration because we are trying to keep the information on the site
as accurate as possible. If the people adding information are tracked, then all
of us will have greater confidence that the information is accurate because, after
all, who wants to be known as someone who is deliberately attempting to mislead
other members of the community. |
