The competition was created by MyPeopleBiz to celebrate the launch of its latest functionality which now includes parsing and artificial intelligence technology through the partnership with Burning Glass. MyPeopleBiz's Recruitment Portals are an end-to-end web-based system, accessed from the Employers Corporate Website and include a Career Site, an Applicant Tracking System, Interview Management functionality and provide the ability for the Employer to communicate requirements to all the Candidate supply channels including Job Boards, Social Networks, Recruitment Agencies, Head-hunters, Careers Site and Internal and External Referrals schemes. Recruitment Portals help to reduce the cost of Recruitment and also save HR time, simplifying the recruitment process for applicants and providing better management information for hirers. Portals can include Talent Management Systems that allow Candidates to register details and skills. Another key benefit is that it makes the application process far simpler, helping to improve the employer brand.
The winners will benefit from unique, easy to use features and the latest technology , which learns and looks for patterns using artificial intelligence rather than hard-code tables, allowing the user to search a complete CV rather than key fields. This eliminates inefficiency, allowing the matching of jobs with candidates; and the processing of CV's and data extraction to improve the more you use it, as it learns intelligently what you require.
Parker Crockford, Business Development Director at MyPeopleBiz, said ‘We had numerous entries as expected and I have to say that its the first time I have actually enjoyed giving something away - It is a great feeling, and it will get even better when we start to see the 3 winners start to enjoy using their portals, organising their recruitment and enjoying the cost to hire savings that they will be able to achieve - my congratulations to the winners.’
