Very interesting. As much as I am curious to know how much it costs, I would also be curious to see if it could make outsourced recruiting much less of a necessity for certain types of positions. An employer could now, fairly easily, attract many more qualified active and passive candidates with far less know how; and in a much more targeted fashion. By going to where the the candidate hangs out on line, rather than hoping the right candidate happens upon the site you chose to advertise on, your investment stands to see much better returns. Should an employer by the service, or pay a head hunter? <br /><br />It will be interesting to see who adopts it, outsourced recruitment firms, or direct employers. <br /><br />Outsourced recruiters have long held their networks, secrets and sources close to the breast. They wear their AIRS CIR and CSSR certificates like badges of distinction. Will technology like this devalue those certification to some degree? Who knows?<br /><br />While personal networks are still a prized asset to the seasoned outsourced recruiter, in the hands of direct employers, this technology could stand to level the playing field a bit. <br /><br />What do you think?matthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09957410977357439021noreply@blogger.com
