Baltimore, MD, February 11 -- Boxwood Technology, Inc. (www.boxwoodtech.com), announced the launch of the American Staffing Associations (ASA) newest members-only benefit, the ASA Job Gallery (www.staffingtoday.net). Designed by Boxwood exclusively for ASA members, the Job Gallery gives staffing companies the necessary tools to easily and affordably incorporate online recruiting into their daily operations, saving them valuable time and money.
ASA has worked hard over the last six months to put together a full-featured program that offers staffing companies the tools they need to make Internet recruiting a successful and cost-effective aspect of their business," says ASA executive vice president Richard Wahlquist. The ASA Job Gallery provides features and benefits that simply are not available through any other program of its kind."
Job Gallery subscribers take advantage of partnerships formed with major job boards that serve as destination sites for job postings and offer significant discounts for single job postings. Job Gallery partners include CareerBuilder (Nasdaq: CBDR), CareerCity, CareerMagazine, JobOptions, HeadHunter (Nasdaq: HHNT), NetTemps, and NationJob. Although Monster.com (Nasdaq: TMPW) and Career Mosaic do not offer discounts, they can be selected by Job Gallery subscribers as destination sites for their job postings.
With the ASA Job Gallery, we can post a job on all of the major job boards in the time it used to take to post a job on just one of them," says Ray Soll, HR3 Staffing and chair of ASAs member services committee. Reducing the administrative work associated with posting jobs on multiple Internet sites has been a major improvement to our business."
In addition to identifying top quality commercial job boards and reducing the costs associated with sending jobs to those sites, the Job Gallery also simplifies the process of posting one job to multiple destinations. By using the Job Gallerys online posting form, a job can be sent to all of the Job Gallery destination sites in the time it takes to post a job on one of these sites. Candidates applying for
the positions from multiple sites are delivered in one uniform format, making it easy to assess and compare relevant information and skills. Pre-screened job seeker applications are e-mailed directly to the hiring managers desktop, and include a cover letter stating why he/she is a good match for the position, a skills evaluation and ranking based on criteria chosen by the company, and an original-format resume.
We post a lot of jobs on sites all over the Internet. The standardized delivery of those candidates saves us a significant amount of time in reviewing applications, and the skills match percentage and original-format resume we receive with each candidate means that we can evaluate everyone using the same criteria," says Sean Snyder of CNC Global. I cant imagine NOT using this system."
