Welcome to the new Standout Jobs website. This is a significant departure from our old site which a much simpler, leaner design. It also speaks to the transition we’re making from a technology company to a service-oriented company. We recognize that many of our customers and companies out there need more hands-on knowledge and help with social recruiting. And we want to make sure that people realize that we can offer that level of knowledge, help and implementation in the realm of social recruiting.
I’ve always believed that recruiting should be given a higher priority within most companies. We see that movement today, but still not enough. And I’ve always believed that recruiting needs to be a strategic, long-term initiative, not a shotgun approach driven by advertising as the core solution. And again, we’re seeing movement in that direction, but still not enough.
If you look at what’s going on today in marketing with companies like Hubspot and their focus on “inbound marketing”, I fundamentally believe that the same principles and strategic can apply to recruitment. Make yourself as an organization findable, accessible and open — and people will come.
At the same time, recruiting isn’t a passive activity. You have to be reaching out, sourcing, building communities, keeping in touch with people. You can’t just throw something up on the wall and wait for people to flock to you. It just doesn’t work that way.
We (at Standout Jobs) want to help you get this sorted out. We want to do it in a way that doesn’t cost an arm and a leg (it doesn’t have to!) We want to do it in a way that empowers you to make things happen, so you’re not dependent on us; after all it’s your company not ours, you should be telling its story.
