Business Description

Dice Holdings, Inc. was incorporated on June 28, 2005 in Delaware. The Company has been in the technology recruiting and career development business for 19 years. In 1999, the Dice.com service was acquired by Earthweb Inc., an Internet technology content provider, which at the time of the acquisition was a publicly held company. During 2000, Earthweb Inc. which subsequently changed its name to Dice Inc. made a strategic decision to focus on technology recruiting and career development and exited the technology content-based business. On July 23, 2007, the Company completed its initial public offering. It is a provider of specialized career websites for select professional communities. Its career websites serve as online marketplaces where employers and recruiters find and recruit prospective employees, and where professionals find relevant job opportunities and information to further its careers. Each of its career websites offers job postings, content, career development and recruiting services tailored to the specific needs of the professional community that it serves. It organizes its businesses into the following reporting segments: DCS Online, eFinancialCareers and Others. The Company operates the following websites, each of which focuses on different career sectors or geographic regions: Dice.com, eFinancialCareers.com, ClearanceJobs.com, All HealthcareJobs.com. It also operates Targeted Job Fairs, a producer and host of career fairs and open houses focused mainly on technology and security-cleared candidates in the United States. In 2009, Targeted Job Fairs produced 85 career fairs, at which it hosted a range of locally and nationally recognized companies and recruiters, offering them the opportunity to screen and hire highly qualified candidates face-to-face. Its specialized career websites provide professionals with quick and easy access to job postings that are relevant and meet its industry-specific criteria, and provide customers with pools of hard-to-find, highly qualified professional talent. By providing deep databases of professionals to its customers and a large number of employment opportunities for professionals, it encourages the use of its websites and continues to attract customers to its services. The Company provides recruiting and career development websites for direct employers, recruiters, staffing companies and technology and engineering, financial services, capital market and corporate finance, healthcare, and security-cleared professionals. Its customers include small, mid-sized and large direct employers and staffing companies, recruiting agencies and consulting firms. As of December 31, 2009, customers of Dice.com and ClearanceJobs.com included AT&T, Adecco, Lockheed Martin, Manpower, Raytheon and Robert Half, and customers of eFinancialCareers included Robert Half, Barclays, Moody's Investors Service, JP Morgan Chase, SThree, Société Générale and Macquarie Group.
