Public Technology Institute today introduced PublicTechJobs.com, a Web site that connects local government agencies with job seekers searching for technology related positions.

The site emphasizes jobs in information technology and e-government, environment and sustainability, public safety/homeland security, transportation management and geospatial information services.

City and county governments can use PublicTechJobs.com to post career opportunities and view resumes. PTI members receive a discount rate when posting opportunities.

Individuals can post resumes, view job postings and receive e-mail alerts when new job opportunities are posted -- all for free.

"Government is often on the leading edge when it comes to developing and implementing technology solutions," according to Alan Shark, PTI executive director. "Of the many job-search tools on the Web, only PublicTechJobs.com is devoted to technology positions in local government."

PTI will demonstrate PublicTechJobs.com at its 2008 Technology Leadership Conference and Exposition, May 6-8, 2008 in Miami-Dade County, Florida. This conference brings together officials responsible for technology programs in local governments across the U.S.
