jobserve.com Overhauls CV Search

As part of a review of its offerings, international jobs website jobserve.com has revealed an overhaul of its CV search service, resulting in three different packages.

Wendy Cowell, Global Online Sales & Business Development Manager, announced this move in response to feedback from customers who told her that the CV search feature was an important adjunct to the standard job posting, saying:

“We know from talking to our customers that job adverts are important but that in some cases they need to proactively search out the right candidate.”

The three packages are:

• Instant CVs – unique to market offering; and
• Ad-Hoc CV Downloads; and
• Monthly CV License.

The Instant CV service can be accessed and used in under 5 minutes and involves 4 steps –

1. Register (for new users) or log in;
2. Type in skills and/or quantifications and location;
3. Review CVs displayed and select suitable candidate(s); and lastly
4. Pay by credit card for full access to the CV enabling you to contact the candidate immediately

Priced at £5 per CV in the UK, AU$5 in Australia, US$5 in the US and CA$5 in Canada this service is not intended for use by professional recruiters but will satisfy the occasional user.

Ad-Hoc CV Downloads is aimed at recruiters who do not have the volume of searches to justify buying a monthly license, and provides volume discounts for buying in bulk. Ad-Hoc downloads are valid for one year and allows recruiters to gain access to the full service at a lower cost.

While the Monthly CV License is aimed at the professional recruiter market. The licences provide up to 200 downloads per day with unlimited users and views. Licenses can be purchased from 1 – 12 months and provides the user with the dual functionality of two search engines –

• Quick search for recruiters with only limited fields to be searched and who value speed; and
• CV Pro for recruiters searching to fill complex positions with up to 24 fields being searched.

Cowell explained the thinking behind the packages, saying:

“Our aim with this product revamp was to make our candidate data base available to each type of recruiter and find flexible price points that suited everyone’s needs ”.

“With millions of candidates registered on our database it was essential for us to provide two distinct ways of searching – one for the quick search where the speed of the search was important and another for the really difficult to find candidates. That’s where our Pro Search comes into its own as it searches millions of candidate records with multiple search fields.”

Earlier this month the company unveiled a new “Featured Job” product.
