It costs thousands of dollars to hire one employee so what's the point of free job postings ?

Heard of craigslist jobs ?

Only posting and viewing would be free (not contacting each other)! There aren't many portal covering all imp countries.
will you be data mining or connect to other job sites?
If you aggregate jobs from other sources then be prepared for absolutely awful data quality. Firstly, recruiters don't understand their specialism ( http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=112521 ). I've lost count of adverts for "open sauce" developers and suchlike. Secondly, they brazenly lie about details. If a job is advertised with a salary between x and x*3 then the latter is very theorectical. This type of practice is encouraged because it rises to the top when you trivially aggregate.
what's the point? are you trying to get into market of international hiring? or what is the goal?
Prepare for very long run.
