Berkowitz, who has been a senior vice president of Microsoft's online business, is in the process of leaving the software maker, a move announced earlier this year.

"Steve is an experienced and visionary leader whose proven record of success leading online services makes him an ideal person to join our board," said TheLadders.com CEO Marc Cenedella in a statement.

Before Ask.com, Berkowitz was the president and COO of IDG Books.
