Jobnet.co.il is Israel’s leading job listings site. Founded in May 1997 with funding by the Science Ministry and the Samis Foundation, the site was set up to advance several goals: to foster employment in Israel, to spur Israeli companies to make use of the Internet (which was just getting started at the time) and to encourage aliyah by enabling job advertising on a platform that crossed borders and continents for the sake of the Jewish community around the globe.
