Candidates Alive ñ Brings Resumes to Life

New company, Candidates Alive ensures jobseekers give a great impression first time, through their new leading edge video resume technology.

Candidates Alive offers recruitment companies the technology to create video resumes of their candidates on their premises and the ability to brand these videos and present them to clients.

This technology, already widely available in Canada and the US, is changing the ìfaceî of recruiting forever.

The technology is a winning formula for all those involved. For one, the recruitment company can enhance their level of service and stand out from the crowd by offering an addition to the standard paper resume; secondly the candidate can be seen, heard and have the opportunity to showcase themselves on video. Finally, the future employer will also benefit from a quicker, more efficient screening process.

Recruitment agencies who sign up with Candidates Alive will receive all the equipment, training and know how to exclusively brand their own candidates videos.

Recruiters, who use this new technology, will have an edge in a cluttered recruitment agency market.

Candidates Alive will ultimately save time and money in the recruitment process.

Employers will be able to put a face to a name and preview the footage of the candidate, and as a result will be able to make a more informed decision before proceeding any further.

Both the recruiter and employer will save tremendous amounts of time by being able to gauge a first impression and assess basic attributes.

Jonathan Weinstock, CEO and founder of Candidates Alive explains:

ìThe new system is a great tool which goes far beyond the scope of the paper resume, allowing the employer to see a candidateís communication skills and personality - all qualities which are hard to determine from a resume yet critical to any screening process.

Recruiters can now better showcase their candidates to employers who value an open and transparent recruitment process.

Overall, the benefits to both job seeker and recruitment agency are huge and we ultimately aim to enhance the quality and speed of the recruitment process for everyone involved.î

The system is user friendly, easy and simple to manage. The technology is world class standard and there are no attachments or large files to download which means no delays or huge files involved.

In all instances a candidateís privacy and confidentiality is protected and permission must be first obtained from the jobseeker before any videoing can take place.
