Following IMDiversity's recent migration to a new jobs database and job tools format at http://jobsearch.imdiversity.com, the editors have begun to restore a number of previously popular jobs quicksearch features including our jobs by location and jobs by occupation quicksearches, our $100K-Plus Featured Jobs section, and our weekly Featured Jobs section.
Just one one new improvement to our job tools is that jobseekers can now quickly and easily schedule a Saved Search from any search results page to send them a job alert email whenever any new jobs match their custom criteria. Jobseekers can "subscribe" to a Saved Search agent without opening a full job tools account, but they will enjoy improved tools for managing multiple alerts and posting employer-searchable resume by creating a quick Job Tools account first
We've also added a much expanded network job search, greatly extending the range and variety of the job postings searchable from one site.
Stop back for updates about the new jobs center in coming weeks.

Journalist Webinar Briefing: Closing the Racial Wealth Gap
The Media Consortium, the Insight Center
MC Contact: Tracy Van Slyke
tracy@themediaconsortium.com
America's most glaring economic injustice is the racial wealth gap: families of color have only 15 cents of wealth to the white family's dollar. The racial wealth gap has been caused by government policies from the expropriation of Indian lands and slavery, to many aspects of the New Deal like the GI bill and Social Security, to current policies like the Home Mortgage Interest Deduction and unregulated housing and financial markets. The Oakland-based Insight Center's Closing the Racial Wealth Gap Initiative has over 120 experts of color across the country who are resources to journalists and elected officials on federal, state and local economic stories and policies.
On Tuesday, June 16, this call will feature story ideas and investigative journalism proposals from:
Michael E. Roberts, President, First Nations Development Institute, on Closing the Racial Wealth Gap in Indian country
Avis A. Jones-DeWeever, Ph.D., Director, National Council of Negro Women, Research, Public Policy, and Information Center, on her new report Assessing the Double Burden: Examining Racial and Gender Disparities in Mortgage Lending, co-released with the National Community Reinvestment Coalition
Janis Bowdler, Senior Housing Policy Analyst, National Council of La Raza on the housing crisis and Latinos
Short presentations will be followed by Q&A.
