Online recruitment is now the norm for switched on job hunters
A recent survey by the IRS Employment Review has revealed that online recruitment is now the norm for two-thirds of organisations.
According to the survey, in the past year online recruitment methods have gained credibility and are more popular than ever with the ever-increasing number of University graduates.
Submitting a CV online is now the most popular method off applying for a job, and is used by two-thirds of employers. Only 40% of companies are using the traditional paper application form.
The success of the Weybridge-based, award-winning online job board, ClickAJob.co.uk reflects this trend.
ClickAJob is now the UK’s largest job search engine and the only online recruitment and career service that allows job seekers to search for vacant positions across a multitude of career and company sites, and review the findings in a single list.
Ever since its launch in 2001, it has been ClickAJob’s mission to create transparency in the online job market, making it easier for job seekers to find the vacancies they are looking for, and for companies to find the perfect staff.
Yngve Traberg, ClickAJob CEO, said: “More and more people now have access to the Internet anywhere and at any time. This makes job-hunting a 24/7 business. People can find a suitable job online and then apply for it there and then.
“Online job boards have dealt effectively with a lot of issues involved in using agencies or classified advertising. You no longer have to wait for the newspaper to come out on a certain day of the week as, via ClickAJob you can find out the latest vacancies across the UK and it is very cost effective.”
Not only can people search for jobs across 195 of the UK’s top job portals using ClickAJob, but companies can create an online window profiling their business without the costs of having to pay for expensive web designers.
Companies can then be seen by thousands of web-users (ClickAJob now receives 15,000 new users daily). Each of these can read about your company, access your vacancies and get a complete overview on what you have to offer potential employees, without having to launch your own site. If you already have a website, ClickAJob drives traffic to it without additional costs.
