NEW YORK – Monster Worldwide, Inc. (NYSE:MWW) today announced the acquisition of TalentBin, Inc., a social profile talent search engine, and Gozaik LLC, a developer of social jobs aggregation and distribution technology. Terms of the transactions were not disclosed.

The capabilities contributed by these acquisitions will enhance Monster’s ability to successfully connect people and job opportunities by adding increased distribution of job ads across social channels and additional employer resources for finding the best candidates.
