Slecht nieuws travels fast, en dat geldt dus ook voor het laatste nieuws over CareerBuilder + Monster. Volgens Investing.com wordt een faillissement overwogen:

A joint venture between CareerBuilder and Monster, early pioneers in online job hunting, is considering a potential bankruptcy filing, according to Bloomberg, citing people familiar with the matter.

The private equity-backed entity has engaged AlixPartners for operational guidance and Latham & Watkins for legal counsel, said the sources, who were not authorized to speak publicly about the situation.

Multiple restructuring options are being evaluated, with no final decision made yet. If Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection is chosen, filings could occur as early as next week, some sources indicated.
