Is CareerNet still a Job Board?
The answer is no, but people often associate CareerNet with its original job board solution. Founded in 1996, CareerNet built one of the original job boards and then created one of the original ATS solutions to manage the massive resume databases its job board generated. Our HR technology lineage gives us significant advantages in sourcing candidates quickly and at great price points. We understand the limitations of resume data pools and the frustrations many HR or Hiring professionals face daily. In our internal efforts to solve these frustrations that we created a unique and effective method for recruiting candidates across all industries.
How does CareerNet drive your recruiting success?
CareerNet’s review and prescreening assessments of applicants allows us to present you with a focused pool of individuals who bring the experience, skills and— equally important—the earnest desire to develop and thrive in your business. They are truly pre-qualified candidates. You launch past the initial avalanche of data into a group of real applicants ready for your specific needs and available for you to determine your match. People do this. Algorithms and search filters can’t.
How is CareerNet different from other job posting and recruitment places?
First, we don’t just compile jobs and applicants and shovel the data volume your way. We’re not compilers. We don’t sell data disguised as key word matched resumes. CareerNet learns about you—your business, your culture and what really makes you tick.
We don’t simply provide you with an applicant basket full of lofty qualifications—you’re capable of doing that on your own.
CareerNet assesses your needs and purpose when filling a specific position at your organization. Then we tap into our pool of qualified applicants to provide you with a tight group of matching applicants, facilitating your opportunity to secure a motivated and productive match between your organization and your hire. And we can do it all with a single phone call of 20 – 30 minutes.
