Benefits

Here are the highlights:

Communicate More Easily and Effectively

Fundamentally, HR and recruiting are about communication. If you believe that, you’ll understand why Standout Jobs exists and how we can help.

Our recruitment communication platform is designed to give you unprecedented flexibility to communicate more actively and effectively with job seekers.

  • Use the right tools. Standout Jobs leverages Web 2.0 and social media to make sure you’re using the right tools to reach the right audience. Young job seekers want to be connected with employers the way that they connect with everyone else; and that’s easier than ever with our platform. Use video, blogs, chat and more to connect.
  • Sneak peek. Give candidates a sneak peek inside your company. That’s what they want. They want to see if your company is a good fit. Open up your doors, even just a little bit, and show off what makes your company interesting, unique and valuable.
  • Evolve over time. Rome wasn’t built in a day. And in as much as you can launch a career site in a few hours, the great thing is that it will evolve over time. You’ll add more widgets and content. You’ll create videos, polls and upload photos. You’ll change the content on-the-fly during college recruitment season or at other times during the year. It’s simple and requires no technical experience. And the flexibility to update your career site whenever you want, instantly, means you have all the control you need.

Hogan Consulting, Inc. found that candidates applying through their career site are more engaged and interested:

It’s really obvious that they want to learn more about HCI’s business. They’re better versed, more web savvy, more apt to do the things necessary to brand themselves better to us after seeing the professional level of the HCI site. When our offers are given, people are more likely to accept. Standout Jobs has helped us achieve an overall more polished brand and that makes a difference in the mind of the candidate when weighing offers.

Attract Job Seekers from New Sources

The elusive passive candidate is out there. Lurking somewhere, digging around for interesting opportunities, but not spending all of her time on job boards. How can you reach that passive candidate and draw them into your world?

We know that candidates are all over the Web, keeping an eye out for opportunities, but not aggressively pursuing them. That means you need to find them. Our platform is designed to help you do that in a few ways:

Find the Right Candidates

Many HR people will tell you they either get too many applicants and are forced to treat candidates like cattle, or they get too few applicants for those hard-to-fill positions. There’s rarely a happy middle ground.

But Standout Jobs can help. By providing more information on your career site about your company’s culture and team, you’re giving people exactly what they want and need to make the right decisions on whether to apply or not. Jay Marshall at Polk “…uses Standout Jobs to specifically target Generation and Y candidates where they live online, and for our overall branding initiatives.” As a 140-year old company, Polk is continuously looking to re-brand itself and extend its reach to the right audience of job seekers.

Finding the right candidates is about putting yourself out there, reaching candidates where they spend time online and marketing & selling to them in an honest and authentic way. It’s about strategic recruiting. The right people - once they see your dynamic and engaging career site - are more likely to convert into applicants that you can keep building positive relationships with through the recruitment process.

Save Time

Standout Jobs is a productivity tool. career web site will help attract people constantly. You’ll still run recruiting blitzes, and post on job boards when need be, but your career web site will be a 24/7, 365 days a year recruitment machine. It never stops. It’s always out there, putting your company’s brand and messaging front-and-center.
