Social networking and business hub Circa and sister club Velvet have launched Job Search – the UK’s first fully comprehensive online gay and lesbian job database and application tool.

Owners say Job Search, www.circa-club.com/jobs or www.velvet-club.com/jobs, will revolutionise the way the UK’s estimated 1.6 million gay and lesbian employees can identify gay-friendly recruiters and employers and job vacancies.

The service is completely free for the jobseeker, and already showcases over 2,000 job opportunities from over 60 recruitment agencies that have registered to date.

Job Search also offers a Recruitment Resource Centre for job seekers, with lists of gay professional business organisations and associations, career building tools, personal assessment quizzes and distance learning courses.
