MINNEAPOLIS, MN--(Marketwire - August 30, 2010) - Jobs2web, the leading provider of interactive recruiting solutions, today announced that it has been ranked on the annual Inc. 500 listing of fastest-growing private companies for the second consecutive year. With three-year sales growth of 1,332%, the company's 2010 ranking was 226, up two positions from its 2009 ranking of 228. Jobs2web was also ranked fourth in the Minneapolis market and no. 21 in the software category.
The Inc. 500 listing represents a comprehensive look at the most important segment of the economy -- America's independent-minded entrepreneurs. Companies such as Microsoft, Zappos, Intuit, GoDaddy, Zipcar, Clif Bar, American Apparel, and many other well-known names gained early exposure as members of the Inc. 500.
"Fast growth at any time is a big achievement; fast growth during the past few years is just short of miraculous," said Inc. editor Jane Berentson. "The Inc. 500 consists of these just-short-of miraculous companies, the ones that through ingenuity and ambition have increased revenue, hired employees, and grown fast in difficult economic times."

About the Inc. 500's Methodology
The 2010 Inc. 500 is ranked according to percentage revenue growth when comparing 2006 to 2009. To qualify, companies must have been founded and generating revenue by June 30, 2006. Additionally, they had to be U.S.-based, privately held, for profit, and independent -- not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies -- as of December 31, 2009.
