North Vancouver, BC - Jul 27, 2005:
– Hcareers, the dominant job board for the restaurant, retail, and hospitality industries, today announced a partnership to integrate its job board with the hiring management system of Unicru, the leading provider of Total Workforce Acquisition solutions.
According to the agreement, Hcareers visitors who are interested in applying for a hospitality, restaurant or retail position posted by a Unicru client will be sent directly to the application on the employer’s career website allowing the Unicru client to best source, screen and hire top Hcareers candidates with industry-relevant experience. In addition, Unicru hospitality, restaurant and retail clients posting job openings through Unicru’s system now have the option to also post the available position on Hcareers with one simple click.
"Recent estimates indicate that 70 percent of jobseekers use the internet to look for employment opportunities so there’s no question as to whether or not companies should be posting their open positions online,” said David Curry, Senior Executive Vice-President of Hcareers. “The Hcareers-Unicru partnership will allow Unicru clients to do just this, increasing their likelihood of finding the best job candidates who will best fit with their culture."
"From management to hourly employees, organizations hiring candidates with industry-relevant experience and qualifications will gain a competitive edge,” said Chris Marsh, president and CEO at Unicru. “It’s proven that those employees stay longer and sell more and we’re certain Hcareers, together with Unicru, will help companies make quality hiring decisions."
At any one time, Hcareers has over 75,000 jobs and 56,000 resumes posted. Monthly site traffic is 900,000 unique visitors (source: NetTracker), which is five times more than any other job board for restaurant & hospitality traffic.
