PersonnelZone was founded in 1998 as an information source for HR and training managers in public and private sector organisations across Europe and the Middle East.

It provides regular browsers with access to a recruitment section, with a good number of HR vacancy listings across Europe and the Middle East. Positions cover HR administrators, directors and managers, and this section is great for leads if you’re looking for work in this part of the world.

Subscribers gain increased access to the website. Subscribing is a relatively painless and free process and only takes a few minutes. After this, browsers can access a directory with supplier profiles and contact info, opt to receive a monthly email newsletter for HR and training professionals and a bookstore with a considerable number of good reviews on HR, training, business management and other titles.

Navigating PersonnelZone isn’t too challenging, though the designer is fond of tricky drop down menus across varying sections of the site. Design follows suit, with an odd mixture of site layout and tiny screen fonts.

While PersonnelZone does provide some good resources in the jobs area, overall its advertorial focus will prove of little use to most HR professionals looking for worthwhile content.
