E-Recruitment

E-Recruitment: also referred to as Internet recruiting, online recruitment, and e-recruitment, is the use of the internet for attracting, hiring and retaining job seekers. This involves matching candidates and validating their skills and qualifications. As the number of people searching online for jobs increases, companies are taking advantage of e-Recruiting software to manage the entire recruitment process and reduce recruiting-related costs.

E-Recruitment utilizes the power of online resume search technology to parse resume databases and help recruiters and human resource personnel actively search for candidates on a global scale. Though E-Recruitment initially began as a simple method for finding talent online, it has evolved to incorporate all aspects of candidate management. Now companies and organizations are using it to manage job postings, candidate applications and even conduct online interviews.
