Heidelberg (I-Newswire) June 1, 2011 - 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:
http://www.scienceandhealthcarejobs.com
http://www.stethoscopejobs.com
http://www.labratjobs.com
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.
