Japans Recruit Co. Acquires Indeed.com To Extend Jobs Reach From US To Asia

job_search_indeed_en_GBAmid all the recent brouhaha over why Craigslist has failed to improve for so long (in part leading to frustrated developers building things) the entire classifieds market continues to chug along in its various guises.

Ltd, a provider of HR and information services based in Japan, has acquired Indeed.com, a highly trafficked jobs site best known in North America.

Co-founders Paul Forster and Rony Kahan are staying on in the new guise.
