Vision2Hire Solutions and CNC Global Partner to
Cross-Market Key Recruiting Products and Services
VANCOUVER (February 21, 2001) - Vision2Hire Solutions announces today that it has entered into a strategic partnership with Recruit Ad, a CNC Global Company based in Toronto. The partnership brings together Vision2Hire Solutions' flagship product, Vision2Hire™, with Recruit Ad's full service recruitment advertising agency services.
The partnership will enable the two companies to cross-market products and services through their respective websites. Vision2Hire will make Recruit Ad's job broadcasting packages available through its web-based applicant response management system. For the first time, Vision2Hire clients will be able to broadcast their job postings on select job boards on a fee-for-service basis.
"Vision2Hire is a very tightly-focused hiring tool that we've priced within the spending limit of virtually any hiring manager," said Randy Guy, Vision2Hire's vice president of sales and marketing. "We know, however, that our clients want to broadcast their recruitment ads on job boards. Partnering with Recruit Ad lets us satisfy client demand on a fee-for-service basis while keeping our own development activities focused on our core business."
Vision2Hire is an application service provider (ASP) business solution that makes it both easy and economical for hiring managers to automate the applicant tracking and response management processes. The web-based applicant response management system enables companies to streamline the workflow associated with candidate administration.
The Vision2Hire client roster includes companies as diverse as the resort and real estate developer Intrawest, the provincial utility, BC Gas, the sports conglomerate Maple Leaf Sports and the global researcher, Ipsos-Reid. Recent additions include the Sheraton Centre Hotel, Stockgroup.com, Xenon Genetics and Xcellsis Fuel Cell Engines.
Recruit Ad specializes in strategic Human Resource marketing services, from job broadcasting and career center web design to e-recruiting consulting and employer brand management. The company entered the online recruiting business early, pioneering the use of Internet advertising for HR departments in health care, engineering, IT and financial services. Major clients include Intrawest, University Health Network, C1 Communications, Alliance Pipelines, Telesprectrum Worldwide, AT&T Canada, AstraZeneca Canada and Loyalty Management Group.
Recruit Ad president, Howard Weintraub, sees an essential need for his company to offer its clients a shortcut to applicant response management through Vision2Hire. "One of the effects of good recruitment advertising is that it can bring a flood - hundreds, sometimes even thousands - of applications," said Weintraub. "Now we offer a tool to help our clients manage that flood."
Vision2Hire Solutions is an Internet application service provider (ASP) that develops and markets a proprietary applicant response management system for Human Resource practitioners. In development since 1992, and released commercially in early 2000, the company is headquartered in Vancouver, with branch offices in Calgary and Toronto. Its wholly owned US subsidiary, Vision2Hire Inc., has one office in Seattle. In November 2000, Vision2Hire Solutions closed a $2.85 million financing led by Discovery Capital Corporation, a Vancouver-based venture capital firm.
RecruitAd Advertising is a division of CNC Global. Founded in 1981, CNC Global is recognized as one of North America's premiere providers of integrated high-tech staffing solutions, including traditional search, contract staffing, recruitment advertising and communications, and Internet-based recruiting.
