As Job Boards Restrict Access to Resumes, What Is Your Game Plan?
By Jennifer Porter
In a recent posting on recruitingblogs.com, the question of resume access came up and stirred quite a debate.
Here at GoliathJobs.com we understand both sides of this topic. Several “bad bananas” spoiled the whole bunch. Unfortunately there are issues where organizations will access resumes strictly for spam purposes. It has raised red flags in terms of privacy and has caused many job boards to react. Some have increased the cost to search resumes while others have deleted the feature all together. We are adding the feature in our V2. However, on GoliathJobs all employers are verified giving job seekers peace of mind. That should help to avoid the issue.
Another key point is that we penetrate schools, alumni associations, social networks, professional networks and niche boards. This saves employers & recruiters the work of manually doing it themselves. The ensuing traffic reduces the need to search resumes.
Thank you for reading. Have a good day!
