History
Snag a Job started in 1999 when Shawn Boyer was trying to help a friend find an internship job online. He noticed that there was no one really covering the part-time and full-time hourly jobs market. The website officially launched to the public in 2000 and registered a million job applicants within the first two years. The company has gathered many awards and hit many milestones over its first ten years, and now has over seven million registered job applicants.[1] -
