Jobfox Intros between Candidates and Employers
The new Jobfox services – available now – are free for job candidates; employer services are available by subscription. “With Jobfox Intros, high-match job seekers are immediately moved to the top of the resume stack,” said Rob McGovern, CEO of Jobfox. “Rather than submitting resumes into a black hole, qualified candidates are personally introduced by Jobfox, so they can skip directly to the interviewing step. Candidates want connections with highly matched employers, not just long lists of undifferentiated jobs. Jobfox is the only site that gives them this capability.”
Jobfox Intros, building on Jobfox’s sophisticated matching service, adds highly interactive online tools and expert staff support to quickly connect qualified candidates and matching employers. The Jobfox Intros Team monitors all “5-Star” matches and assists candidates and employers in making rapid and convenient introductions, using a comprehensive array of e-mail and text messaging services.
“Jobfox is bringing the human element found in employment agencies and staffing firms and marrying that with the technology prowess found in its automated matching solution,” said Brian Sommer, CEO of TechVentive Inc. and Vital Analysis, a technology research organization. “The transparency of this model should find great reception with
employers and candidates.”
New Jobfox Intros services enable candidates to:
• Quickly find, monitor and compare the most compatible job matches via the
award-winning Jobfox Mutual Suitability System™.
• Request employer introductions and check the status of introduction requests
made to employers.
• Track and respond to employer-initiated introduction requests.
• Discretely discover new career opportunities with the ability to block current
employers and other designated organizations.
• Make great first impressions by reviewing Jobfox “interview prep sheets,” providing tips, job-fit highlights and important company links for further nformation about prospective employers that have accepted introductions.
Jobfox Intros also helps employers build employment-focused social networks made up of the best talent in the market. Top prospects are added to the employer’s My Jobfox Connections™ candidate network, which is dynamically updated with the most current candidate contact and career-progression information. With My Jobfox Connections, employers maintain robust talent networks for filling immediate hiring needs as well as maintaining longer-term relationships with top candidates for future staffing needs. Introduced candidates also see individually tailored employer showcases that recruiters use to highlight the benefits of working at their
organizations.
“Jobfox is passionate about helping candidates find jobs they love,” McGovern said. “We are winning the hearts and minds of professionals who seek careers, not just jobs. And we’re winning employers who want to reach out more efficiently to highly qualified professionals.”
