Jobshout announces job alerts functionality

Jobshout is an online service for recruiters and HR that lets you add a high-level job search function to your website while optimizing the content for the likes of Google. Are proud to announce that it will soon allow users to automatically send alerts about newly posted jobs, via email or SMS, to candidates whose job-seeking profile matches the vacancy.

ìJob alerts are a great way to communicate with candidatesî, says Jobshout CEO Steve Gibson. ìThe ability to post a job and to have it reach both active and passive jobseekers immediately can give an agency a critical business advantage over the competition. And from a branding point of view having your very own job board that sends alerts speaks volumes about the quality of service that you provide.î

The job alerts functionality is part of a broader programme to expand the Jobshout package through its Jobshout Pro. The first module to be announced was the ability to send job details to the UKís popular Broadbean job posting system.
