INTERNET RECRUITING SAVES TIME AND MONEY
A California based company, recruitsoft.com has reduced their clients' recruitment expense by up to 70%. Laura Rich of The Industry Standard writes "Creative Good estimates that a company with a top-notch recruiting site saves as much as $ 6,000 in man-hours for each position filled." The costs are reduced by the extensive use of online databases. Information about a candidate is collected and processed through customized forms which allow skills-based screening. The information can be processed within minutes of the applicant's submission, drastically reducing the recruitment process time frame. For further information click to:
