Online job site CareerBuilder.com has announced that it is now offering job and internship matching applications on the Facebook Platform.

Users who add the CareerBuilder applications will receive updated job and internship listings that will be related to the information found in their profiles. Users can apply for positions from Facebook or link to search for more jobs on the CareerBuilder site.

CareerBuilder's technology scans Facebook user's profiles for information such as major in school, hometown and network and then matches it with jobs available in the database. CBcampus.com, CareerBuilder's college job and internship search site, also offers an internship matching application for college students.

"Facebook has more than 36 million active users and is the sixth-most trafficked site in the U.S.," said Richard Castellini, Vice President of Consumer Marketing at CareerBuilder.com.

"Building a job matching application on Facebook Platform enables CareerBuilder to interface with a large, highly interactive community dominated by users who are choosing and building career paths. We are making the job search process easier and more convenient for Facebook users while providing employers with a unique way
to market their job openings."
