Justifying e-recruitment investments

Qikkerís ROI calculator

Qikker Solutions, supplier of ASP recruitment solutions, has introduced a return on investment (ROI) calculator to its website... and now offers a recruitment audit service.

The cost-saving potential of investing in e-recruitment is now quantifiable thanks to a new ROI calculator developed by Qikker Solutions. The Manchester-based HR Business Services specialist is providing the tool on its website, www.qikker.com, as a value-add for companies to improve their recruitment practices. Analyst house Forrester, highlighted the interest in applications such as ASP-based solutions, which require lower investment levels as part of the trend towards the end of the technology slump in 2003. Forrester also predicts that technology budgets in 2003 will be divided into manageable chunks, with those responsible for IT spend looking for solutions that deliver short term results. This will mean that innovative ASP based solutions will receive a boost as companies look more favourably towards this method of application delivery.

Recognising the need for financial savings to be put into perspective, Qikker developed the ROI tool in-house, to help prospects develop their business case for purchasing a new recruitment solution. Industry analyst Bloor Research, tips IT projects which cover investment made within a year as particularly attractive, and calls them ëfast ROI projectsí. Qikker can help firms to achieve these faster ROIs.
