Job Alert(s) on Cell (Mobile) Phones

Job Alert(s) on Cell (Mobile) Phones

Eureka.. nah not really!

But thought about something.  Almost all companies have Email job alerts on their career pages.
How about putting a job alert for your cell phone?

Its so easy and I think its a good idea. I am really not sure if any companies are doing that. Let me know if you know of any?

I think after skills the first criteria anyone looking for a job would be to target companies based on location/area.
For Ex:- If I live with in 30 miles  of 07645 area code I would like to have a job at KPMG-
WHY KPMG? 
- Fortune 100
- 50 best places to Launch a Career by Business Week
- Computerworld - One of the"100 Best Places to Work in IT"
- Working Mothers 10 Best Co

Wow! so I really want to work at that firm ; so I go to there career page and look for jobs but I don't see anything thats interesting to me right now and I sign on job alert which can send me a email as soon as they have an opening matching my skills or may be I can sign up if they had a mobile (cell) alerts which immeditely sends me a SMS as soon they have an opening.
Why not SMS? The Gen Y would love that but then they are always on top of their emails as well.

Career Builder has the service where they will send you a text message with the latest job openings, based on your interests, daily or weekly. So why aren't corporate sites implementing this idea?

    Interesting post. I get regular emails from an automated job search that I set up through the Career Services website at my University (Florida International University in Miami). Since my email is ultimately pushed to my phone, I get the alerts wherever I happen to be. Unfortunately, the format is difficult to view on my device. SMS would aid with that. So, I wouldn't mind having such an option available for alerts.

    I am skeptical of such technology in the recruiting process in general, though. I see the advantages to using any available means to network, and ultimately obtain success. However, is there not a danger that technology will cause us to be less social(in the traditional sense), and ultimately hurt our chances once a face-to-face meeting is required?
