Single female seeks "the perfect fit." Likes long walks on the beach and stock options. No mama's boys or micromanagers.

The art of matchmaking, once reserved for meddlesome aunts and online dating services, has found its way into the corporate world. A new service identifies, profiles and matches job seekers with employers through a process that's not so different from match.com.

A series of assessments includes questions about the candidate's management style, problem-solving abilities and personal motivators, followed by a resume review, reference calls, and, gulp, background check, said Ashley Bowers of corporate matchmaker Solutions 4 Hiring.

The service offers one promise you won't find when it comes to matters of the heart: The eventual hire is guaranteed to stay in the job for at least four months, Bowers said.
