mJob Partners with Bayard

Monday, May 18th, 2009

mJob has partnered with Bayard Advertising, a full-service recruitment communications company.

Bayard Advertising partners with employers to save time and money by developing interactive strategies, employer brand campaigns, weekly ad creation and placement and Web site design.

The new partnership will allow Bayard’s clients the option of including a mobile initiative powered by mJob to enhance their current sourcing and candidate management campaigns.

“Our alliance with mJob gives us a competitive advantage to offer the best mobile marketing solutions available,” Eric Holwell, director of of Interactive Services at Bayard Advertising, said. “In addition to standard text messaging campaigns, mJob expands our scope of services to include bluecasting, scan marketing and WAP site development which can host our clients’ jobs in a readable format designed for mobile handsets. Targeted SEO and SEM strategies are available as well which will assist in taking advantage of the 20 million people who search on a mobile handset.”

“Bayard is a well-respected, long-standing company in this industry, and mJob is proud to be delivering solutions in tandem with their current array of services,” mJob Founder Joel Cheesman said. “This partnership ensures that Bayard’s clients can take advantage of the latest mobile technologies to ensure an effective, efficient mobile strategy.”

The most recent research indicates that mobile is the most pervasive technology. There are more than 4 billion handsets connecting users throughout the world, making mobile always within reach, unlike land lines and computers that aren’t as compact and versatile.

A recent study by the CDC shows that for the first time, cell phones outnumber fixed lines as a household’s unique phone. The study found one in five homes have a cell phone but no land line.

CKR Interactive Expands with mJob

Monday, May 4th, 2009

CKR Interactive has partnered with mJob to expand its ExCELLerate solution.

CKR Interactive has announced that it has expanded ExCELLerate to include mobile job sites, scan marketing and Bluecasting. ExCELLerate is the company’s complete, mobile recruitment marketing solution. The new features will bring together CKR Interactive’s recruitment advertising expertise and mJob’s cutting-edge mobile technology to enable employers to launch well-rounded, successful mobile recruiting campaigns.

“CKR Interactive is excited about our new partnership with mJob, as their robust mobile marketing solutions and well-rounded knowledge of the recruitment industry will further expand and strengthen our mobile recruitment marketing solution – ExCELLerate,” Skye Callan, manager of interactive product development, said.

“We’re looking forward to helping our clients take advantage of this technology,” Callan continued. “Mobile recruitment marketing will allow them to target and attract prospective candidates (both active and passive), as well as maintain ongoing communications with their pipeline of top talent, and is a great addition to any recruitment marketing plan.”

Part of the expansion will include mobile job sites. ExCELLerate’s mobile job search sites will allow employers to guarantee that any potential candidate with a mobile Web browser can view their jobs in any of the thousands of mobile formats and easily apply to them through the employer’s applicant tracking system.

The expansion also will include scan marketing, a feature that brings employers’ jobs and employment brand to life with a camera phone, delivering real-time content to job seekers when they’re engaged with the employer and potential job opportunities.

Finally, the expansion will include Bluecasting. This is the ultimate in proximity marketing, allowing employers to send out customized messages to prospective candidates with Bluetooth-enabled phones. This new feature will be great for career fairs and college recruiting events, among other things.

ExCELLerate will enable instant message delivery to prospects who are interested in an employer’s opportunities, making it easier to attract active and passive candidates. This solution is scalable for companies of any size and is well-suited for global companies or organizations with multiple locations.

“I’m pleased that mJob will be able to assist CKR Interactive’s clients with their mobile initiatives,” mJob CEO Joel Cheesman said. “CKR Interactive recognized that providing their clients with the option of a mobile site ensures they remain on the cutting-edge of recruiting technology and gives their clients a leg-up in an increasingly competitive landscape. We look forward to powering these initiatives and helping their clients enjoy a productive, cost-effective mobile strategy.”
