VCG’s StaffSuite Staffing Software Now Supports RSS Feeds For Social Network Recruiting.
Recruiting and staffing firms can easily and quickly create RSS feeds to update Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn accounts to aid in candidate recruiting and sourcing efforts.
Atlanta, GA, January 20, 2010. VCG’s latest enhancement to their StaffSuite® staffing software is designed to help busy staffing and recruiting firms enhance their employee recruiting and sourcing efforts by linking StaffSuite to any online social network through RSS (Real Simple Syndication) feeds. Additionally, job applicants and/or current employees can subscribe to RSS feeds directly from the staffing firms’ Web site for job postings made through StaffSuite and the StaffSuite WorldLink® Web portal module.
Candidate sourcing and recruiting, even in today’s tough employment market, is of paramount concern for staffing and recruiting firms. And with the explosive growth of social networks such as Twitter®, Facebook® and LinkedIn®, staffing and recruiting firms are leveraging these communication tools to connect with both active and passive job seekers.
The challenge however, is maintaining those communications and keeping them fresh. Now, VCG’s StaffSuite staffing software, integrated with the StaffSuite WorldLink Web portal module, can create RSS feeds to the staffing firms’ social network sites or to subscribing applicants that include the staffing firms’ latest job postings.
These RSS feeds can be simply and easily set up using StaffSuite’s fully integrated reporting tool based on specific staffing or recruiting corporations, branches and/or job categories. The RSS feed report is fully customizable to enable multiple feeds to be generated based on different criteria. This gives the subscriber the ability to subscribe to one or many feeds at one time. Further, once set up, the RSS feeds reduce the effort and cost of maintaining and updating the staffing and recruiting firms’ social networks.
Steve Taylor, President and CEO of VCG, said “Online social networks are proving to be an effective recruiting source for staffing firms, but they are also often time-consuming to maintain and update. StaffSuite now gives recruiters and staffing professionals an easy-to-use means to leverage their own social networks so that candidates, applicants and employees can be updated with fresh job postings.”
