If you're like most employers, you're ready for online recruiting with no compromise in speed, cost or applicant quality. You and online recruiting may have a love-dread relationship: you can't live without the reach and cost-effectiveness of Internet job boards. But too often web recruiting floods you with resumes from applicants who are marginally qualified if not downright unsuited for the job. At the Interview Exchange, we've developed advanced tools for identifying qualified, motivated applicants sourced from virtually any job boards simultaneously. It's fast, easy to use, reasonably priced, and it works! To learn how we're helping HR professionals like you every day, and to see why the Interview Exchange can become your "Missing Link" in online recruiting," please read on. -- Naray Viswanathan, Ph.D., President

    Back to the Future
    .
    Even as the economic recovery sputters forward, economists and staffing gurus are mounting an urgent call for employers to prepare now for a surge in hiring. Today's buyer's market for skilled and general labor is making a rapid swing to the sell side, the experts tell us. Employers will find themselves competing like they did a decade ago to attract newly discriminating job seekers -- both out-of-workers and the millions of disgruntled employees ready to jump ship ASAP. Perpetuating the "bad old days, where "applicant interaction" means little more than automated e-mail responses to candidates -- if that -- may well represent of a career-limiting approach to staffing.
