eWork.com allows employers and employees to meet and greet -- virtually.

You might not have spent Labor Day looking for work, but there was at least one Web site out there doing it for you. Aimed at helping contract professionals find work, eWork.com was launched on the day when most people were busy not working. Think of eWork as a virtual job fair, where potential contract employees can post their resumes for employers to view, and employers can post descriptions of the projects they have available. The site also includes a virtual workspace to collaborate on projects, and offers of group membership in health insurance and other employee-type plans. The eWork site had been in beta since June 30. Mike Hanley, vice president of business development for eWork, says the population of users is still small, but the site "is experiencing registration in the hundreds per day range." When potential a employee posts a resume for viewing on the eWork site, each posted Web-sume is given its own URL. Prospective employers can access this URL, and the worker can send out the link to anyone who might be able to help their job search. Companies seeking contractors can use the Project Page to provide an online description of their projects, which provides prospective hires with an understanding of the needs and objectives of a project. Both the Web-sume and the Project Page feature are free of charge.
