One of Africa's Great Firms to Work For & Cyber Squatters

Hiring Solutions launched www.careersatceltel.com this week in a project which aims to make Celtel the best Internet recruiter in Africa. The first phase of the project seems to have launched well and rolls out now across fourteen countries and in various languages so definitely a benchmark careers portal in the making.

One shame was that the company planned on using celtelcareers.com, but looked it up and left it to a department to register. Two weeks went by and it was mysteriously snapped up by a cyber squatter.

This scam happens a lot. Basically when you're searching for career portal names for your company make sure you do your research discretely and if you have to check the availability of a name/URL on www.register.com or www.thename.co.uk then if you see a name you need then make sure you buy it immediately.
