LONDON, Jul 30, 2007 (PR Newswire Europe via COMTEX News Network) --

comScore, a leader in measuring the digital world, today released the results of their latest study into career-related Internet sites in Europe, based on data from its comScore World Metrix service. According to the study, sites dedicated to online career resources, job search, and training attracted an average of 51.7 million European visitors per month during Q2 2007.

Monster led the category among European visitors, attracting an average of 7.7 million unique visitors per month. The second most-visited online career resource in Europe was ANPE Sites (the most-visited career site in France) with an average of 2.7 million European visitors per month. JOBCENTREPLUS.GOV.UK (the most-visited career site in the UK) was the third-most-visited career site in Europe with an average of 2.6 million European visitors per month during the quarter.

Bob Ivins, Managing Director, comScore Europe, commented: "The second quarter of 2007 saw Monster continue its position as the leading career site in Europe, attracting almost 5 million more visitors every month than its nearest competitor. With Easter falling in early April and there being two bank holidays in May, a lull in traffic could perhaps have been expected in Q2, however career sites remained a popular draw for the European online population."
