PRESS RELEASE Information Technology Recruiting Web site
Recruiting Station.com
In the technology business, time is also survival.
The difference between moving ahead and falling behind often comes down to
the most fundamental aspect of your business: Your people.
"The data we have suggests that 72-hours is the optimum window to clinch a
potential candidate," says Eric Gordon of Rapid Algebra Interactive,
http://www.rapidalgebra.com, developer of Recruiting Station.com, a
realtime, Internet-based service that matches qualified job seekers with
employers around the world.
"Miss that window and the key to your business reaching the next level is gone -
hired by somebodyelse."
The shortage of skilled workers to meet the needs of the technology
industry in the next millenium is well-documented, says Gordon.
And that's where Recruiting Station.com fits in, he says.
It harnesses the power of the Web through 1,400 geographically-targeted
usenet groups (newsgroups). The browser-driven service is free to
individual job-hunters who can post their resume once to apply for thousand
of jobs with just a click of a mouse.
It allows employers to screen prospective candidates and to ensure that
they recruit from the widest possible database and most current of
potential hires.
"What we do is a little like fishing," Gordon says. "We bait the hooks by
setting out lures in newsgroups, specifically targeting skills by
geographic location. We bring them to us. They offer up their resumes and
link directly through Recruiting Station.com to corporations hungry for the
right people."
For the human resource manager, a Recruiting Station.com subscription is
like having a head-hunter on retainer 24/7. It also offers the flexibility
of allowing the employer to add or change job postings quickly and
efficiently from any remote location.
"Recruiting Station.com is also flexible enough so that we can set up a
link on the company's own website that hooks into the powerful engine that
drives our proprietary software," said Gordon.
Geared specifically to the high technology industry, Recruiting
Station.com, also offers a spectrum of service to the employer and
job-seeker alike.
"There's a chat facility where you can look up a job-finding club, request
interviews and do online interviews or post a wish list of what you're
looking for in a job," said Gordon. "It's an online place to go and hang out."
