    HUNTINGTON BEACH, Calif., Feb. 15 /PRNewswire/ -- Teens4Hire, a national
online job matching service for U.S. teenagers and employers who hire them,
officially launched today at http://www.teens4hire.org/ .  This free service for teens
(14+) fills a void in targeted advertising and meets a growing need for
today's youth.  Teens across the country can create a profile, search for job
openings from local and national employers and apply directly online to
employers of choice.  Employers of teens are invited to advertise all suitable
job openings.  The site accepts all types of jobs; full-time, part-time,
seasonal, temporary, vocational, apprentice, intern, volunteer, military etc.
"We believe it's the first national site to bring it all together just for
teens in preparation for the April-July teen job searching swell," said
Executive Director, Renee Ward.
    Teens are encouraged to register now to compete for upcoming job openings
this spring and summer.  Employers can subscribe to a discounted annual term
for ongoing or multiple job openings or advertise a single job opening.
    "Our mission is to make Teens4Hire.org the 'go to' online recruitment site
for teenagers.  Indicators show that our teens have taken the brunt of the
economic slowdown and September 11th.  They're desperate for jobs and we're
here to help," said Ward.
    A strategic marketing plan that includes alliances with major teen
magazine publishers, an email marketing blitz, and focused internet
advertising, distinguishes this site that will reach millions of teens
nationwide both on and offline.  A limited number of Charter Sponsorships are
still available for firms who employ teens, value brand recognition in this
market segment and want to secure premier positioning on the site.
