New online
recruitment hubs for healthcare, science and medical industries
Springer has launched a network of
job sites designed to attract and showcase the unique talent and highly
qualified audience that uses Springer tools which are some of the industry's
most trusted, prestigious and trafficked sites for research. With over 16
million unique visitors per month across a wide range of highly specialized
scientific disciplines and medical specialities, Springer’s sites attract the
candidates that employers are seeking.
With over 5,000
up-to-date job listings available at launch, the Springer network of job sites
is a comprehensive recruitment solution for leading global employers across the
healthcare and life science industry. With the unique Springer audience already
working within the industry, recruiters are able to reduce hiring costs as well
as effort and time-to-hire.
The sites within the network
include:
In addition to reaching
the targeted communities, employers can cross-post their job listings to all
three sites to maximize the potential return on investment. Springer has
partnered with Madgex and Amped Market Place (AMP) to power and maintain the
sites. Madgex is providing the job board software and AMP provides the sales
staff, social media optimization and overall recruitment advice.
“The scientific, medical and healthcare
communities already rely on Springer for research and connecting to others in
their respective fields through various niche scientific social networking
sites,” said Ray Colón,
Director of eProduct Management at Springer. “Our goal with these job sites is
to complement our existing online offerings, by giving these scientific
communities trusted destinations to post science and medical job openings
specifically aimed at researchers and scientists that visit SpringerLink.com
and other Springer platforms.”
The job sites provide outstanding
functionality for recruiters and hiring managers. For example, employers can
use competitively priced advanced features such as resume searching, premium
listings and fully branded featured campaigns. Candidate shortlists and
applications are managed via account areas to keep track of all positions of
interest. Additional branding opportunities are also available for recruiters
to increase brand awareness and attract further applications. The technology
platform is also fully mobile-enabled which means job advertising and branding
is available to candidates on desktop, laptop, smartphones and tablets.
For candidates, the job site is
highly intuitive with tools to make searching for the perfect job a quick and
easy process. With thousands of jobs already online, candidates are able to
search via keyword, country, job disciplines, specialties and salary range. To
keep up to date with the latest jobs added to the job sites candidates can
create email alerts by following a simple two-step registration process.
Creating a user profile takes seconds with easy resume uploading and a
straightforward application process. To ensure candidates can search for their
next career opportunity from any location the job site is fully mobile-enabled
engaging candidates on desktop, laptop, smartphones and tablets.
Springer is also providing quality
data about the demand for hiring within the industry including the publishing
of an employment index on the job sites that provides an aggregated look at the
state of global hiring within the broad Life Science and Medical segments. The
Index is developed in collaboration with ZRG Partners, a global authority on
talent management issues within the Life Science, Pharmaceutical and Medical
markets. The index was developed based on overwhelming industry demand for a
simple, intuitive indicator of the state of hiring within the Life Science and
Medical Industry including critical insights into regional hiring trends, skill
shortages and talent gaps around the world.
