NSSF Debuts New
Firearms Industry Jobs Resource

NEWTOWN, Conn. — The National Shooting Sports Foundation® (NSSF®), the trade association for the firearms industry, today debuted a new online job resource designed to help members of the firearms industry recruit qualified professionals and job seekers locate potential employers. This expanded and improved platform replaces the existing job posting service offered by NSSF.

Located at jobs.nssf.org, the new NSSF Career Center includes:

• Unmatched Job Listing Exposure—As the voice of the industry, NSSF provides unparalleled exposure to the largest audience of qualified professionals in the firearms, ammunition and outdoor industry.
• Easy Online Job Management—Create an Employer account and enter job descriptions, check the status of your postings, renew or discontinue listings, make payments online. Employers can also post company information and website links.
• Résumé Search—With a paid job listing, employers can search a résumé database for suitable candidates. The system will also automatically notify you when a new résumé matches your criteria.
• Job Seekers, Get Discovered!—With an all-new résumé database, job seekers can upload their resumes and be found faster by employers seeking specific qualifications. Upload your résumé here.

“We’re excited to launch this new platform to the benefit of both employers and job seekers alike,” said Deb Kenney, NSSF Vice President, Human Resources and Administration. “No other job board out there is dedicated solely to fulfilling the hiring needs of the firearms industry, and we think our new Career Center will not only fill that gap, but provide a much-needed avenue for matching highly qualified industry professionals with the specialized jobs that require their skills.”

Available to both NSSF members and non-members, the all-new NSSF Career Center includes a dedicated support hotline. Have questions about uploading a job listing or résumé, paying a listing fee, how to search for employees and more, call 888-491-8833, ext. 2521.
