The Resumator, makers of innovative online recruiting products, announced today a partnership with BambooHR, a best-of-breed HR software provider. The partnership will provide small and growing businesses with a powerful Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) HR solution comparable to offerings used by large businesses.
Despite being an early adopter of SaaS, and the significant reduction in costs required to operate online services, both companies believe the HR industry has fundamentally failed small and medium-sized businesses by not providing SMBs with an affordable, comprehensive suite of HRIS tools that don’t require paid training courses and long-term contracts. In fact, SMBs often use little or no technology for human resource management beyond email, spreadsheets and file cabinets.
The Resumator (which manages applicants), and BambooHR (which manages employees), were created to empower SMBs with HR tools they’ve never had, but have always needed. These two elegant online services empower SMBs at opposite ends of the employee life cycle. Today’s announcement of a strategic partnership and software integration signals a closing of that gap.
By partnering, The Resumator and BambooHR will provide a seamless and feature-rich SaaS experience that helps businesses manage the complexities of promoting jobs, tracking applicants, onboarding new hires, and managing employee data. Employers will use The Resumator to promote their jobs across the Web and collaborate to review resumes. Once a candidate is hired, the applicant profile can be exported as an employee profile, and then imported into BambooHR’s employee database. From there, employers can use BambooHR to manage employee data, generate reports, store documents, and more.
Putting HR tools in the hands of employers—regardless of their size—is a primary goal for both companies. The high costs of applicant tracking systems, job postings, overpriced ERP and on-premise HR software is not an option for most businesses. With the rapid growth of both The Resumator and BambooHR, a natural fit exists where the entire employee life cycle is efficiently managed anywhere, anytime and at an economical price.
“It was just a natural fit,” explains Don Charlton, Founder and CEO of The Resumator. “We’re on one end of the process, and (BambooHR is) on the other. We loved their product, and we both care deeply about small businesses, so we worked to build a bridge between our services.”
“We’re excited to give our customers a competitive advantage by partnering with the exceptional system that Don and his team have built.” said Ben Peterson, CEO of BambooHR. “This partnership makes HR administration faster and easier, giving HR more time to focus on their most important asset – their people.”
