- Product Description
- Standout Jobs provides online recruiting tools for companies to build interactive career sites, find prospective employees, and promote a positive candidate experience. Companies showcase their culture and build employer brand to capture passive interest into an active talent pool. We emphasize communication and relationship building, resulting in better hires. Companies can reclaim wasted recruiting dollars by reaching more targeted audiences and driving people to a richly detailed and dynamic experience.
- Market Opportunity
- Standout Jobs targets small-to-midsize enterprises, with an initial focus on technology companies. IDC reports the worldwide market for talent acquisition and staffing services was $74.2 billion in 2006, growing 9.2% yearover- year ($35.1 billion in the U.S.). Borrell Associates says spending on online recruitment advertising has surpassed $5.9 billion.
- DEMO Says
- We’ve seen innovation for the job seeker this week at DEMO but what about the employer? The emerging tech sector is highly competitive again for “hot hires” and companies are finding that pool tables and stocked snack bars are no longer the draw they once were. The reliance of today’s applicants on Internet content communities forces employers to do the same. Enter Standout Jobs, which gives companies the social media tools necessary to attract the right hires. Customized microsites with video, blogs, and all manner of social widgets give Standout Jobs customers a needed leg-up in the recruiting game, while removing the infrastructure headache altogether.
