CareerBuilder.com, the largest online job site in North America with properties in 13 European countries, has partnered with Europe's top recruiting technology companies to offer clients seamless integration to maximize recruiter efficiencies. The new partnerships include: Amris, Bond, Broadbean, Bullhorn, Candidate Manager, ChangeWorkNow, First Advantage, iCIMS, Kenexa, MrTed, PeopleBank, Peopleclick, PCRecruiter, Profilsoft, and Webcruit (Kaonix). Partnerships also include job posting aggregators such as and eQuest and candidate sourcing tools such as TalentDrive, AIRS, Daxtra and infoGIST.

"CareerBuilder's goal is to provide our clients worldwide with an experience that makes connecting them with the right people efficient and cost effective," said Farhan Yasin, president of CareerBuilder Europe, Africa and the Middle East. "Significant advances in technology have paved a road for new process-improvement tools that can easily integrate with a variety of applicant tracking systems. By adding these partners, CareerBuilder is strengthening its commitment to improving the recruitment process for our corporate employers."

  There are numerous benefits from integration, which can include:
  --  More time - prior to integration, 60 percent of a recruiter's time
      could be spent on non-value-added activities - such as cutting and
      pasting resume data into an ATS; after integration, that 60 percent
      can go down to 40 percent or less, giving you more time to focus on
      your most important duty - strategic hiring.
  --  Higher Quality Candidates - difficult, confusing and lengthy
      application processes deter the highest quality applicants. 
      Streamline your application process, reduce candidate drop off and
      appeal to the best candidates with tighter integration between your
      ATS and Careerbuilder.ca.

  --  Better Tracking - one of the most important benefits of integration is
      the ability to track where your candidates come from.  Allowing
      candidates to choose where they heard about an opening often leads to
      misinformation and less than strategic decision making.  Integration
      allows you to track your applicants with close to 100 percent
      accuracy.  Accurate reporting leads to a better understanding of your
      online recruiting investment.
