--Job seekers can now search and apply for positions from any location--

LONDON, June 16 -- CareerBuilder UK is launching a new free "Jobs" iPhone application that enables job seekers to search and apply for jobs from virtually anywhere. Using the iPhone's built-in geolocation technology, the CareerBuilder application "Jobs by CB" automatically determines the location of the job seeker and then allows them to find a job using a simple keyword search. iPhone users can even apply for positions directly through the CareerBuilder application.

"CareerBuilder UK is in the business of connecting the right employers with the right job candidates as quickly as possible," said Tony Roy, Managing Director of CareerBuilder UK. "Our new app brings a new level of convenience to iPhone and iPod touch users by furnishing the ability to search for jobs on the go anywhere, anytime."

  --  Create a user account from the application
  --  Upload a CV - or create a new one
  --  Job search by keyword, location or company
  --  Search results directly on a map relative to their current location
  --  E-mail jobs to themselves or others
  --  Mark jobs they like as "favorites" for easy reference
  --  Apply directly to jobs from the iPhone application
  --  Browse recommended jobs and see application history
  --  Search for jobs by:
      --  company name - the name of the employer desired
      --  search radius - maximum desired distance from the specified
          location
      --  employment type - full-time, part-time, intern, contractor,
