Applying via LinkedIn

As a professional social network LinkedIn is becoming increasingly important in the recruitment of new talent. Peoplexs has made it possible to proactively search through LinkedIn via social search tools, and it is now also possible to use an “apply via LinkedIn” button on a company website, social media outlets, and job boards. Using the button candidates can react directly to vacancies with their LinkedIn profiles, thereby streamlining and simplifying the application process.

Using the LinkedIn button lowers the entry barriers for applicants by making it easier for them to send more information with less effort. Candidates can choose to submit their information via traditional methods or via their LinkedIn profiles. When a candidate uses the LinkedIn button their profile is sent directly to the Peoplexs recruitment system.

Recruiters receiving up-to-date LinkedIn profiles are able to obtain insight into the experiences, educations, recommendations, and networks of job candidates. All information from the LinkedIn profile is placed into the recruiting system and matched with the organization and vacancy. Data can also be analyzed and shared in reports.

The “apply via LinkedIn” was made available on May 1, 2013 in the Peoplexs recruitment system. Current clients will receive more information via the Peoplexs community page and network.

admin — Mon, 03 Dec 2012 16:37:33 +0000

During the community day People^xs has given a sneak preview of the new design of their recruitment software. The new design is called “agile”, which stands for a modern, user-friendly and intuitive recruitment system which enables recruiters to find the right talent for their organisation more easily.

During the sneak preview People^xs has showed the first images of the new interface. The new interface is the first phase of “agile”. This interface is developed in co-creation with People^xs users and in collaboration with professional designers. The new look and feel is therefore even more intuitive and fully adapted to the needs of recruiters. The new interface is received very well with comments like “looks promising” and “I can not wait to work with the new interface”. The official release of the new interface will be at the end of January.

People^xs also works on the development of the second and third phase of agile. Currently there are integrations with e.g. SAP, Oracle, AFAS, SD Worx and Unit 4, which enables organizations to easily exchange data between different operating systems. The second phase consists a simplified setup, so users are able to make adjustments to the system more easily. In the third phase, which will be completed in 2013, People^xs focuses on mobile recruitment. The platform will be fully accessible via mobile, which gives recruiters access to information anytime and anywhere. It will also be possible to easily create a mobile career site in the look and feel of the organization. This enables organisations to reach an even larger group of candidates and give them an optimal candidate experience.

SD Worx and Peoplexs conclude strategic partnership for e-recruiting

admin — Tue, 30 Oct 2012 09:30:54 +0000

Antwerp-Amsterdam, 25 October 2012.
HR service-provider SD Worx and the Dutch cloud-technology company People^xs have concluded a strategic partnership for the distribution and implementation of the e-recruitment application of People^xs. This was announced by both partners today at the HR Tech Europe Fair in Amsterdam. The partnership gives SD Worx exclusivity for the recruitment app on the Belgian market. The People^xs app is scaleable, and can therefore be used by both small firms, large multinationals, care organisations and State enterprises.

The aim of the partnership is to offer firms an integrated state-of-the-art e-recruitment application that supports the administrative recruitment process, optimises the influx of new employees (more and better candidates) and contributes to the employer’s image. The tool also provides for better candidate experience, the way in which a potential employee experiences the job-application process. All too often, job applicants get no response, or only an automatic answer by mail. They have to create personal profiles, fill in Web forms and upload their CVs time after time. Whether a recruitment process is successful or not nowadays depends increasingly more often on the experience created by employers and recruiters.

“The e-recruitment solution by PeopleXS is an important extension of SD Worx’s total range of HR software,” says Stijn Vangenechten, Business Unit Manager HR Software at SD Worx. “It enables us to support our clients to best advantage in their recruitment processes with the latest technology. In addition, People^xs is an essential tool in the War for Talent. With maximum focus on ‘candidate experience’, this total solution helps our clients in their quest for talent!”

From the technical point of view, SD Worx’s new software program offers numerous functionalities. For example, it contains a search function for social media sites like Facebook, LinkedIn and Xing, with which a recruiter can search through social media databases using certain keywords, as well as criteria such as length of work experience and education/training. Other functions include multiposting (publishing job vacancies on various job-sites), automatic CV-extraction, workflow modelling, and various portals including an environment for collaboration with recruitment & selection agencies.

“Our software reduces administrative pressure of work and makes sure that a firm can focus on what is important, the people in the organisation” says Mark Knill, European Head of Sales van People^xs. People^xs gives organisations full control over their recruitment and education process. Giving organisations a clearer insight into their resources enables them to recognise, acquire and develop talent more easily. With it, People^xs creates an environment for development in which objectives are achieved faster and the people and organisation can grow.”
