Ontology researches have been carried out in many diverse research areas in the past decade for numerous purposes especially in the eRecruitment domain. In this article, we would like to take a closer look on the current work of such domain of ontologies such as eRecruitment. Ontology application for e-Recruitment is becoming an important task for matching job postings and applicants semantically in a Semantic web technology using ontology and ontology matching techniques. Most of the reviewed papers used currently (existing) available widespread standards and classifications to build human resource ontology that provide a way of semantic representation for positions offered and candidates to fulfil, some of other researches have been done created their own HR ontologies to build recruitment prototype. We have reviewed number of articles and identified few purposes for which ontology matching techniques are applied so far and how these matching techniques used in that respective domain.
