Back to all Press Release 
Avature launches the first ever CRM solution constructed specifically for Recruiters. The product leverages Avature’s proprietary Web 2.0 framework, and is designed for advanced relationship management, interactivity with social networks, and real time recruiter collaboration.
(New York; September 12th, 2008) Avature, a leading provider of recruiting services, announced that its new product, Recruiting CRM has moved out of Beta and is available to companies seeking to boost its recruiting ability by taking advantage of the social network phenomenon at a global scale. Built on Avature’s proprietary Web 2.0 framework, the application is the only enterprise CRM designed specifically for recruiting purposes. Recruiting CRM brings several advanced sales and contact management features to the recruiting software marketplace. The Beta version was released in June, 2008 at the International Association for Human Resources Information Management (IHRIM) conference and was put through its paces at a Fortune 500 company prior to the version 1.0 release.
Recruiting CRM brings Internet spidering, e-mail threading, SMS communication, tagging and tag clouds, Boolean and Custom Operators, Live Search, and other advanced Web 2.0 features to the talent acquisition software solution space. The user interface is highly customizable, including an optional OFCCP compliance module, multiple language configuration, and intelligent parsing algorithms that can learn any language and adjust to international resume formats and styles. Recruiting CRM’s analytics dashboard brings critical recruiting metrics into real-time view, making management of sourcing teams, recruiters and recruiting managers easier and more effective than ever before. The system is ideal for deployment in front of existing ERP solutions or Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) and is HR-XML compliant, simplifying integration with legacy HR systems.
“Recruiters need to build, organize, and regularly communicate with a much larger network of people in order to respond faster to the talent needs of the enterprise. Current recruiting and HR systems don’t provide the functionality required to manage that type of process in a meaningful way,” said CEO Dimitri Boylan. “At Avature we’ve harnessed recent Web 2.0 technologies to create a completely different user experience for the busy recruiter or sourcing professional. Blistering speed, less data entry, the ability to organize candidates the way you want to, tools to efficiently and regularly communicate with prospects, and real time dashboards are the keys to high productivity for recruiters and managers. One button resume upload from the Internet, online spreadsheet views of data, and dynamic talent pipelines let recruiters get “in the zone”, and stay there.”
Recruiting CRM makes building and managing relationships with talented people effortless. Locally to globally, recruiting operations can now manage critical online and offline sourcing activities and talent pipeline development with an eye on performance and return on effort (ROE). In the “war for talent,” Avature’s Recruiting CRM delivers a competitive advantage over stand alone sourcing tools and traditional ATS systems.
Delivered as a software-as-a-service (SaaS), Recruiting CRM can be purchased as a monthly subscription service.
