It’s been a while – but not too long – since I’ve looked at new sites and services in the recruitment marketing world. New ones roll out all the time, so I thought it was worth a look at some…

If you are like me, you sift through 150 or so articles a day about the HR and recruiting industry, looking for the ones that seem most relevant to our corner of it. Who got funding? What new product was…

Over the next few months we’ll be making some changes to make JobScore’s workflow more powerful. Today’s changes impact tasks, which help you schedule interviews and remind your team to add feedback. First we’ll walk you through a few small tweaks, then describe what’s new. Task categories are now task types Simple. Everything works the […]

So it’s the end of the summer and not much is going on in recruitment marketing, except a new CEO at CareerBuilder and an UpWork IPO and…well, maybe there are a few things going on! Let’s take a look at the latest:…

We’ve made a change in that may cause a hiccup for some of you. The unique number to identify jobs in JobScore was called a Requisition ID, and it looked like this: Today we renamed “Requisition ID” to “Job ID.” We made this change because soon well add a feature called “multiple openings per job” […]

Offers are a critical part of the hiring process. Starting today JobScore helps you click less and do more by creating offer letters and having candidates electronically sign them using Docusign or Adobe Sign. Here’s a quick video that shows how easy it is: Offers are available on all plans, but the e-signatures integration is […]

Hey everyone! It’s that time of the year – time for the 2018-19 Global Recruiting Site Trends survey! As always, I need your help  to get it off the ground. In addition to the usual valuable info on what recruiting sites…

Note: The Doctor is on a much-needed vacation this week. So enjoy this post from 2017 – and get ready for fall!   Since the beginning of the year there have been dozens of recruiting startups, mergers, and acquisitions. Google…

NOTE: A year ago the Doctor was on the verge of heading to the hospital. Afterwards, he wrote this. Today, he’s doing fine. But he thinks the post is worth a re-read! I almost died on Tuesday. Let me explain.…

News this month from players big and small. Every time I think the recruitment marketing industry is starting to slow down, it gets busy again. I guess I should just get used to it! At any rate, let’s take a…

Soon we’ll begin working on the approvals feature in JobScore. A key aspect of approvals is to have “pre-approved” offer ranges… this means your CFO could say that you can hire a Marketing Manager provided their base salary is between US$60,000 and US$80,000. To make this work we’ve updated how you store compensation information on […]

I always thought it would be fun to be a personal advice columnist, like ‘Dear Abby’. The only problem was, I knew my answers would never get published in a general audience paper. ‘Dear Jeff, my significant other is having…

As your company grows it’s common to need to hire the same role in multiple locations. For instance, you might need to hire a stock clerk in 3 different retail stores. Ideally, you’d want to list these 3 jobs on your careers site and job boards with the same job title, but in different locations, […]

I am by nature a skeptic and contrarian. In general, these tendencies have served me well in my various careers. But they also can result in situations where I am surrounded by folks who are making big claims, and who…

To paraphrase a well-known movie/book, conferences are like a box of chocolates – you don’t know what you’ll get until you try one. Or something like that. The Jobg8 Summit last week in Nashville was a nice mix of old…

There’s been no shortage of news over the past few weeks from companies big (Google) and not so big (Adzuna). Toss in a few industry conferences and you have a pretty interesting summer! Let’s see what’s happened lately: MeetFrank lands…

Note: The Doctor is heading off to Jobg8’s Summit in Nashville this week – and thus thought a repost of this would be a good idea. Enjoy! Hey folks, in a few months days I am heading off to the Jobg8…

Remember a few years back, when social media recruiting was all the rage? It was going to change the face of recruiting. Revolutionize how recruiting was done. Make old methods of recruiting obsolete. Social media recruiting was the hot new…

Job boards – both traditional and non-traditional – have historically had one primary purpose in life: to bring candidates and employers together. For the traditional boards, that meant advertising – lots of it. Think Monster’s Superbowl ads – or (more…

The dog days of summer are a misnomer in our industry. Some of the most interesting developments happen when it gets hot (Microsoft buys Github? LinkedIn adds assessments? you get the picture). This cycle is no different – lots of…
