Forward-Looking Statements

This presentation contains forward-looking statements. You should not place undue reliance on those statements because they are

subject to numerous uncertainties and factors relating to our operations and business environment, all of which are difficult to predict and

many of which are beyond our control. Forward-looking statements include information without limitation concerning our possible or

assumed future results of operations, including descriptions of our business strategy. These statements often include words such as

“may,” “will,” “should,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “estimate” or similar expressions. These statements are based on

assumptions that we have made in light of our experience in the industry as well as our perceptions of historical trends, current

conditions, expected future developments and other factors we believe are appropriate under the circumstances. Although we believe

that these forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, you should be aware that many factors could affect our

actual financial results or results of operations and could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking

statements. These factors include, but are not limited to, competition from existing and future competitors in the highly competitive market

in which we operate, failure to adapt our business model to keep pace with rapid changes in the recruiting and career services business,

failure to maintain and develop our reputation and brand recognition, failure to increase or maintain the number of customers who

purchase recruitment packages, cyclicality or downturns in the economy or industries we serve, failure to attract qualified professionals to

our websites or grow the number of qualified professionals who use our websites, failure to successfully identify or integrate acquisitions,

U.S. and foreign government regulation of the Internet and taxation, our ability to borrow funds under our revolving credit facility or

refinance our indebtedness and restrictions on our current and future operations under such indebtedness. These factors and others are

discussed in more detail in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, all of which are available on the Investor

Relations page of our website at www.diceholdingsinc.com, including the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year

ended December 31, 2013, under the headings “Risk Factors,” “Forward-Looking Statements” and “Management’s Discussion and

Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”

You should keep in mind that any forward-looking statement made by the Company or its representatives herein, or elsewhere, speaks

only as of the date on which it is made. New risks and uncertainties come up from time to time, and it is impossible to predict these

events or how they may affect us. We have no obligation to update any forward-looking statements after the date hereof, except as

required by federal securities laws.

Impact of Market Conditions on Our Business

Historically, significant changes in the price of oil have

caused the industry to dramatically curtail recruitment

recruitment advertising activity from further deterioration

in the overall market

stable

TALENT SOURCING: THE LONG GAME VERSUS

SHORT STRATEGIC SOURCING REQUIRES THE NURTURING OF CANDIDATES

Farming talent means building and marketing your brand, not just a single job opening.

Your pre-applicant recruiting strategy needs to focus on initiating and nurturing

relationships with candidates prior to talent needs, not in response to job openings.

ARE YOU EFFECTIVELY SELLING YOUR COMPANY? MARKETING TO CANDIDATES IS ABOUT MORE THAN JOB ADVERTISEMENTS

157

Candidates are always judging potential

employers based on their brand and

IT’S A CANDIDATES’ MARKETPLACE

Companies that focus hiring

messages only on candidates who

have already applied for jobs miss

By engaging with pre-application

candidates, companies create

opportunities to sell their culture,
