BOSTON, Sept. 8 /PRNewswire/ -- As the economy recovers from the recession, the unemployed are renewing their job search. Using a dot-pro domain from EnCirca for email and an online bio helps give unemployed licensed professionals an advantage in the job market. New dot-pro domain names cost just $14.95 for a one-year registration at http://www.encirca.com.

In a market where there are more candidates than openings, the first ones hired may well be those who best demonstrate they have the skills for the next decade. One way to do this is to show that you are Internet-savvy. This can be accomplished by using a .Pro email address that you own yourself and then forward to a free account provided by Gmail or Yahoo. You can also post your resume at your own .Pro domain name, which helps get it indexed by search engines like Google and Bing.

For the highly skilled and experienced professional, a dot-pro domain is a great branding tool. Dot-pro is limited to licensed professionals, including accountants, engineers, electricians, real estate brokers. Professionals registering their name with EnCirca also receive a free directory listing in Find.Pro (http://www.Find.Pro), the Internet's business directory designed solely for licensed Professionals.

Types of businesses and professions now eligible for dot-pro include: Lawyers, Accountants, Engineers, Doctors, Architects, Dentists, Educators, Chiropractors, Veterinarians, Surveyors, Plumbers, Inspectors, Investment Advisors, Real Estate Brokers, Insurance Brokers, Nurses, Opticians, Optometrists, Podiatrists, Psychologists, Therapists, Social Workers, Building Contractors, Electricians, Patent and Trademark Examiners, Court Reporters, Police and Fire Safety Officers and any other profession where an official credential is required for a business or individual to offer services.
