E-services in the Internet job market

In today’s rapidly changing workplace, it’s becoming more and more difficult for recruiters to find employees that are right for their business. Consideration of cultural fit, experience, ability to adapt to the company’s marketplace and ability to grow with the organisation all weigh heavily on the minds of most human resource professionals. This paper describes the development and progress of a solution with the ability to aid employers with these issues and at the same time to provide job seekers with an attractive and friendly environment for finding jobs. The Internet provides the medium for conducting the recruitment and selection process in an online environment. The proposed solution is to develop an integrated Electronic Job Marketplace offering a new service in the Internet job market: Online Interviewing for screening candidate employees. More specifically, in order to meet hiring objectives and control the increasing cost of recruiting, the conclusions of this project suggest that organisations should implement an online recruiting and selection process. The critical requirements of the new model are: eliminating paperwork, improving time- to-hire, reducing turnover, creating a resume and position-centric environment as well as using the Internet as a recruitment and selection tool.
