NORA Winners – a History

The History of the NORas

from 2001

The NORAs now has a long history, in an online recruitment sector which has itself now been in existence since 1995.  Our awards have been held annually since 2001, and in that time we have received over 500,000 nominations, shortlisted 723 Finalists, and presented 192 NORAs.  Some exceptional websites have been multiple winners, and some of the earliest sites no longer exist.  Such has been the fierce competition in this sector, that some terrific popular and successful job boards, have been Finalists many times, but never won an award.

For those with a keen eye for the history of our industry, here is a table of every NORA winner since 2001.
