Rebranded Crexia: Launched Oil Jobsite
Posted by Vic Okezie on June 1st, 2009 | No CommentsI am quite pleased to present a new smart 1 page website for Crexia Limited, a rebranded UK online recruitment firm.
The old version will soon be seen on www.crexiaconsulting.com, which will continue to handle Executive Search assignments.
However, the new Crexia Limited will focus on developing online jobsite, job boards and recruitment portals for UK & International markets.
Having said that, its with pleasure that we have launched today a brand new site for the Oil & Gas industry called – CareersOilGas.com
We have been working on this for the last few months, and its currently in its Alpha stage.
I will write more about this in a few days, and will spend the rest of the week developing its beta version which will be available from July 2009. The new site is open for registration by International oil jobs seekers and oil recruiters.
Joined the 500+ Contacts on LinkedIn
Posted by Vic Okezie on May 25th, 2009 | 1 CommentI have been spending quite sometime on LinkedIn these days – and have been very impressed at the volume of profiles on there.
Growing rapidly, especially with this current economic downtime, LinkedIn now attracts over 40 Million professionals in 200 countries.
Mostly used by web savvy recruiters and business owners, are now using LinkedIn to expand their networking and International appeal. The beauty of LinkedIn is, the more contacts you have, the more you can view specific kind of professionals. Hence, when I had 100 contacts, I might only see around 1000 results for some searches.
Somehow, I have exceeded the 500+ contacts and counting (connect with me on LinkedIn), and now get hundreds of thousands of profiles when I do searches related to current projects I am working on. Brilliant!
Current limit on LinkedIn is 30,000 contacts. I think my target for July 31st 2009, will be 5000 contacts, i.e 20 Million connections in my network. Catch me if you can …

The book, which was his autobiography, was quite a different from the books I have read recently.
