History

[edit]

The company was founded in 2009 as TweetMyJobs.

On November 7, 2011, TweetMyJobs launched a version of their platform designed for veterans as part of the Joining Forces initiative announced by President Barack Obama.[2] Aneesh Chopra, the former CTO of the United States, wrote a blog post stating that "leaders in social media have joined the movement... Twitter, through TweetMyJobs, will reach millions of veterans through their networks."[3]

TweetMyJobs' government platform was announced on January 19, 2012, when the city of Atlanta, Georgia, launched atlanta.tweetmyjobs.com to help Atlanta residents find work.[4] Subsequently, the government platform was launched in Newark, New Jersey;[5] Houston, Texas;[6][7] Nassau County, New York;[8] Ramapo, New York;[9] Columbia, South Carolina;[10] and the territory of Puerto Rico.[11]

On July 23, 2015, the company announced it is rebranding as CareerArc Social Recruiting.[12]
