Link Suggestion

Latest comment: 15 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

I'd like to propose link to the site www.WikiJobs.co.uk ("WikiJob" article on wikipedia). The site hosts articles on job applications, how to apply, etc, and all without adverts and free to access, just like Wikipedia! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.0.222.254 (talk) 23:21, 17 January 2009 (UTC)Reply

"Sample Application" link on this page is suspicious

Latest comment: 11 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

The "Sample Application" link points to an Made for Adsense website here:http://www.jobapplicationcenter.com/ I suspect that this link is being used to drive traffic to that site, or to improve search engine relevance for that site.

You can see where the link was added in place of a previous one here: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Application_for_employment&diff=next&oldid=504215479. Its true that the previous link points to a site that is no longer functioning (http://www.asherm.com/research/application.doc) but this seems like a set up to get the link to www.jobapplicationcenter.com. I say this because in this edit: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Application_for_employment&diff=next&oldid=456500337 you can see where a link was placed to another Made for Adsense site run by the same person called www.onlinejobapplications.com. Review the WhoIs info for the domain www.jobapplicationcenter.com here: http://who.godaddy.com/whois.aspx?domain=jobapplicationcenter.com&prog_id=GoDaddy You will see that the administrative contact is "Diane Turner." This name appears in the ref tag in the edit to the article here:http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Application_for_employment&diff=next&oldid=456500337

In addition, a good portion of this page is simply copied from a document called "Planning the Recruitment Process" which can be found here: http://www.scribd.com/doc/62606731/Planning-the-Recruitment-Process-What-You-Need-to-Know-Definitions-Best-Practices-Benefits-and-Practical-Solutions. Scroll to page 7 and you will see that the references on the wikipedia pagehave been copied word for word from the document.
