.

Dillistone Systems, the leading global provider of software and services to the Executive Search community, is proud to unveil details of its latest FILEFINDER version, tailored for both executive search firms and internal talent acquisition and sourcing teams who recognize that their competitive advantage is dependent on sourcing the best talent.

The FILEFINDER system is already used in 56 countries around the world, consisting from independent researchers to major players in the industry.

FILEFINDER has been recognized as ìgroundbreaking technologyî as a result of the new ìResearch Zoneî technology which allows users to identify and research senior executives who may be found in various websites – including Newspaper aggregators, Corporate websites and Social Networks. The Research Zone takes target company lists identified by the researcher, and returns potential candidates, biographies, compensation information and event organization charts.

Jason Starr, Managing Director of Dillistone Systems, explains: ìThe Research Zone combines retained search concepts with web searching technologies. It asks the Researcher to think creatively about whom he or she wants – the target companies, the job roles – and then automates the process of finding it.î

Other key features of FILEFINDER 9 include:

ï Drag and Drop record creation, with auto rsum extraction support in certain countries
ï Simple to use, assistant-driven and support available up to 24 hours a day
ï Simple, customizable screens with different views for different users

This success is the result of an effective partnership: hundreds of executive search professionals have provided their feedback on what they expect from their software provider, collaborating with our technical teamís vision and creativity in providing the most suitable software that will help them effectively source the best talent worldwide.î
