    CareerSiteBuilder
    If you have a job opening or a high turn around rate like we do. (we are a staffing company) [CareerSiteBuilder] is a great place to to start. It is affordable and reaches hundreds of potential employees. When you search resumes sometimes when you enter keywords you have to play around with it to find the right phrasing. Its not difficult just time consuming.

    For an organization like ours, with staff at many different locations, it is extremely helpful. It also creates standardized workflows in all locations. Because the program is widely adopted, it is very helpful in that the training programs we have developed can be deployed at new locations. It is also helpful for different departments.

    UKG is a beast. I feel like it is meant for organizations with 1000 employees or more instead of a few hundred. SmartLinx Solutions is a bit more down-to-earth.

    Return on Investment
    CareerSiteBuilder
    • We have been able to present MORE candidates to our clients in the staffing industry, and therefore fill more positions.
    • We are able to find MORE QUALIFIED candidates using search features, to in turn fill more direct-hire positions.
    • We have to pay or Career Builder for thousands of people, so that takes away from ROI.
