Monster.com`s National Keep America Working Tour Begins Its Move Southward

Monster Addresses Economic Crisis with Innovative Career Fair that Will Make
More Than 140 Stops to Help Job Seekers Find Available Jobs in a Challenging
Environment
MAYNARD, Mass.--(Business Wire)--
The national tour of the Keep America Working career fairs sponsored by
Monster.com, the leading global online career and recruitment resource and
flagship brand of Monster Worldwide, Inc. (NYSE: MWW), will begin its move into
America`s South at the end of this week in a journey that will include more than
140 stops across the nation throughout 2009. Since the tour was piloted in
Boston at the end of February, 309 employers with nearly 3400 jobs to fill have
met with about 9500 qualified job seekers ready to fill them. Thus far, the tour
has included job fairs in Boston; New York City; Washington, D.C.; Philadelphia;
Whippany, New Jersey; Cincinnati; Indianapolis and Chicago. The 3400 jobs
represented at the fairs are backed up by tens of thousands of jobs listed on
Monster.com in these eight metropolitan areas. This week`s stops on the tour are
today in Minneapolis, and Thursday and Friday, March 26 and 27, in Nashville and
Charlotte respectively.

At the core of the Keep America Working Tour is Monster`s mission to help
rebuild the American workforce. The company presents these job fairs free of
charge to both job seekers and Monster employers with current job openings to
eliminate any cost barrier and encourage the greatest number of employers with
available jobs to link face-to-face with people who need those jobs.

Using an innovative model that goes well beyond the traditional career fair, the
Keep America Working Tour brings together the tools and expertise job seekers
need not only to find a job, but also to help manage their careers. Job seekers
who attend the career fairs can learn from Monster`s career expertsby attending
live theater presentations that provide the advice and techniques they need to
truly stand out from the crowd in today`s tough job market. They can see
Monster's new career management toolsand experience the all-new Monster.com. And
finally, they can make the most of the on-site opportunity to meet face-to-face
with market-leading employers with job opportunities. Employers who attend get
to meet the highly qualified candidates they need to strengthen their recruiting
pipelines and fill their open positions in an efficient manner.

"Finding candidates can be one of the most costly experiences for a company,"
Katherine Doroshenko, a recruiter for PetSmart, Inc., commented from a Keep
America Working job fair. "Being able to partner with Monster in this economy on
a free venue is a really good opportunity for us to promote our company as well
as find the right candidates."

"We know the challenges that many hiring organizations are up against in this
economy and that career fair attendance may be one of the activities that get
lost," said Sal Iannuzzi, chairman, president and CEO of Monster Worldwide. "By
making employer attendance free on the Keep America Working Tour, we have
removed the cost barrier and are encouraging the greatest number of employers
with available jobs to link face-to-face with people who need those jobs. In
addition, as new jobs are created by the government`s stimulus package, we
expect to be able to offer them on the tour and on Monster.com."
