Exhibit 99

HOTJOBS.COM, LTD. AND RESUMIX INC. TO MERGE; CREATES CATEGORY LEADER IN END-TO
END ONLINE RECRUITING SOLUTIONS

     NEW YORK, NY,--(PR NEWSWIRE)--April 25, 2000--HotJobs.com, Ltd.
     (NASDAQ:HOTJ) today announced that it signed a definitive agreement to
     merge with Resumix, Inc.

     The merger combines a leading provider of Internet recruiting solutions
     with a leading developer of staffing management software. Combining
     HotJobs.com's award-winning technology with Resumix's enhanced hiring
     management systems creates a powerful and unique service to provide
     valuable new web-based tools for the combined company's customers to
     automate their recruiting workflow. Following the merger, Resumix will
     continue its operations as a subsidiary of HotJobs.com headquartered in
     Sunnyvale, California.

     Under the terms of the agreement, HotJobs.com will issue approximately 3.6
     million shares of its common stock, representing approximately 10.2% of its
     common stock outstanding after the merger, to Resumix's current
     stockholders who are accredited investors. Stockholders of Resumix who are
     not accredited investors will receive cash for their shares of Resumix
     that, as of close of market on April 24, 2000, would not exceed $800,000.
     In addition, HotJobs.com will assume Resumix's existing stock option plans,
     resulting in the potential additional issuances of approximately 1.1
     million shares of HotJobs.com common stock upon the exercise of Resumix
     employee stock options. In addition, effective upon consummation of the
     transaction, all outstanding options to purchase common stock of Resumix
     will be converted into options to purchase common stock of HotJobs.com.

     The merger, a tax-free transaction, will be accounted for under purchase
     accounting rules, and is subject to certain closing conditions, including
     regulatory approvals. Expected to close in the second quarter of 2000, the
     merger has received all necessary approvals from both Resumix's Board of
     Directors and shareholders and HotJobs.com's Board of Directors.

     Richard Johnson, President and CEO of HotJobs.com said, "Our merger with
     Resumix, an established and well-known leader in enterprise and Web-based
     recruiting software, further extends the growth potential of HotJobs.com
     into companies with large recruiting needs, including Resumix's current
     roster of Fortune 100 companies. We're excited to join forces with the
     Resumix team and to welcome their customers to the HotJobs.com family of
     over 5,000 member companies. We're also looking forward to leveraging
     Resumix's patented employment matching technology and exceptional Web-based
     recruiting workflow products.

     "The recent consolidation in the online recruiting industry shows that the
     other players in our space are beginning to realize what we have known all
     along - that owning the desktop of the recruiter is the key to winning. We
     are the front-runner in this race, and the combination of HotJobs.com's
     award-winning technology and Resumix's





     enhanced back-end hiring management systems will provide a higher level of
     service to corporate hiring managers."

     Steve Ciesinski, President and CEO of Resumix Inc. shared, "Combining
     Resumix with HotJobs.com, one of the most widely recognized Internet brands
     in the world, is a winning proposition for everyone -particularly
     customers. This merger clearly places HotJobs.com as the leader in offering
     customers a true end-to-end online recruiting solution that combines a
     robust front-end job seeker aggregator with a back-end hiring management
     system. We believe that this merger gives the marketplace the best and most
     comprehensive selection of online recruiting solutions available from one
     vendor - HotJobs.com."

     Richard Johnson added, "Through our combined operations, we will not only
     maximize customer value, but will achieve efficiencies which we expect will
     enhance shareholder value. We believe our combined company will benefit
     from synergies in sales, marketing, technology, and overhead which will
     enhance our future performance and accelerate our growth in the online
     recruiting space."
