Alpha Recruiting Group’s
virtual career planning service is a step-by-step, interactive tool designed
by professional career planners and coaches to help your former employee
determine two things: exactly what steps to take next in their career,
and the actual market for their skills.
It’s a self-directed online guide that helps individuals make personal
assessments, set goals, and create a specific action plan for locating
their next position.
When most candidates hear about an opening they simply email their toiled
over resume to the HR department, just like everyone else. As you know,
the vast majority of such resumes are “skimmed,” then trashed.
To get past all the major cuts and into the finals, the candidate needs
to stand out. That’s why we prepare an interactive, web-based personal
biography for them. It’s a multimedia-rich presentation complete
with photos, animation, audio, and plenty of hyperlinks that we can track.
It’s a dynamic marketing presentation designed to command attention
and sell the candidate’s strengths.
If a candidate is seeking a position as a regional sales manager, we will
want to speak with vice presidents of sales on their behalf. Sounds obvious,
but it’s not necessarily all that easy.
To help, we developed our own Internet research software tool to quickly
locate hundreds of company websites in the industry. The application scans
each site with spider-search technology and collects thousands of names,
titles, phone numbers and emails for hiring authorities.
Of course we then contact those hiring managers on the candidate’s
behalf.
SalesFlag™ is a remarkable email-tracking
application that lets the user “see” who is opening their emails
and which links the recipient is clicking on. We know immediately which
hiring authorities are reviewing a candidates multimedia candidate presentation
and how interested the hiring authority is in them. All based on the number
of links they click – even as they’re clicking.
We contact the hiring authorities with the highest levels of interest
and market the candidate to get interviews. It’s a system that gets
results.
