What do recruiters and candidates really want and need recruitment software to do in 2012?
Colleague Software is on a drive to listen to recruiters, consultants, and other suppliers in the industry in order to answer this question.
Colleague will be at Bill Boorman’s #TruLondon Unconference leading the potentially very interesting track ‘Imagineering Recruitment Software’ where participants will lead the discussion – starting with a blank sheet of paper and ignoring preconceived technological limitations.
Colleague Software is also conducting ‘The Little Recruitment Software Survey 2012’ online – and offering a selection of ever changing recruitment goodies to randomly selected participants, including free tickets to our own Recruiter’s Practitioner Only Event in March.
Let me your thoughts on the future of recruitment software below
How long is a ball of string? Rather than be exhaustive about it, I mean we all expect recruitment software to handle certain basics, I'd foreground certain things like integration with a FaceBook jobs board, support for business networks other than LinkedIn (i.e. XING and Viadeo), integration with company website jobsboard, cross posting to a wide variety of independent and niche third party jobs boards (i.e. not just Monster, Career Builder etc), deep integration with Twitter, Facebook, BranchOut (assuming BranchOut overcome certain problems with their own platform) Google+. By deep I mean the ability to schedule posts (including full support for Facebook's ability to address specific audiences), search and save profiles. Not asking a lot I know.
