Following its highly successful launch earlier this year PeopleCompare.co.uk has rapidly established itself as one of the UK’s most effective recruitment tools, especially relevant in the current economic climate, and at a time when it is crucial for employers to spend wisely on recruitment costs.
PeopleCompare.co.uk is the UK’s first comparison tool for recruitment. With an easy-to-use online application – the site operates much along the same lines as going online to a comparison site to find car insurance or a travel arrangement. The site was set up by Managing Director Kevyn Robins, who after 14 years in the recruitment business was determined to create a more cost-effective method of bringing together recruitment agencies, candidates and employers. Over a year in the making the site is now seen as a major step forward in the recruitment industry.
Whilst employers prefer to use the services and expertise of a recruitment agency the cost is of often prohibitive. However, since its arrival PeopleCompare.co.uk allows employers to quickly find those agencies best suited for their needs and at the best price. Previously this exercise would have taken many man hours on constant research. Recruitment companies also save a great deal of time by connecting to employers who have immediate jobs to fill.
Now the site has announced a further FREE service designed to benefit both the recruiter and the candidate.
From January 2009 candidates using the site will be offered a FREE candidate CV distribution tool allowing them to upload their CV without cost and have it in front of up to 20 recruiters. This additional feature also provides recruiters with a great tool to source candidates with no effort and opens the door to place candidates who come to them via the site.
Since its launch PeopleCompare.co.uk has invested considerable resources to establish the brand in the UK. This has included a recently completed TV advertising campaign resulting in a 165% increase of traffic and attracting a number of major household name clients to the site. There has also been a sharp increase in the number of recruiters and candidates using the site and further marketing and expansion is now planned over the next 6 months.
