Bullhorn Launches Free Social Recruiting Platform


The company 'Bullhorn' is known by many as the global leader in online recruitment software.

This month the company has launched the full version of Bullhorn Reach, a new social media-focused platform that allows recruiters to find and connect with qualified candidates via Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter. Isn't is scary how social networking and online communication has grown over the past few years!

Bullhorn Reach is a free service and it is stated to offer recruiters four primary benefits.

(1) Social media connection. Bullhorn Reach allows recruiters to simultaneously post jobs to all of their social networks as well as share relevant content to nurture relationships and build their brand.

(2) Intelligent candidate sourcing. Bullhorn Reach's 'Radar' element automatically collates candidates' noteworthy social networking updates and behavioural data. This turns disorganised and disparate social data into predictive business intelligence. It analyses usage patterns on LinkedIn and Facebook to identify qualified professionals who might be considering a job change, often long before they've begun the search process.

(3) Metric-based breakdowns. The service provides recruiters with comprehensive metric-based feedback so it is instantly apparent which social network has provided the highest success levels, allowing recruiters to fine tune their social media efforts.

(4) Improved search results. Bullhorn Reach helps recruiters' jobs get found more easily by potential candidates utilising search engines.

If you're a job seeker or a recruiter, this new service is definitely worth a look!
