Inhale Resumes from Job Boards, Search Engines and Social Networks

In today’s tech-dominant world, resumes are found everywhere. Job boards, search engines, social networking sites,  free resume portals, blogs, personal websites, alumni associations are some of the major sources of resumes. It is quite encouraging for recruiters and hiring managers, but the challenge lies in how quickly you can find the resumes and extract resume & contact information from them.

 Typically, recruiters and hiring managers visit various resume sources and manually extract resume and contact information to the database. It is a strenuous task for busy recruiters and it eats up most of the productive hours. Surveys reveal that recruiters spend most of their time to source resumes and extract the resume information. Eventually, it leaves very little time to contact the prospective clients or candidates. This is where a resume inhaling tool can help recruiters inhale resumes from almost any source.

A resume inhaling tool with built-in resume parser intelligently identifies and extracts only the resumes from tens and thousands of search engine results. It eliminates the pain of manually sifting through hundreds of search results and it gets you only the resumes you need. The resume inhaling tool not only finds the resumes, but it also extracts the candidate contact information from the resumes and transfers them to your database.

A resume inhaling  helps you extract resumes from outlook emails, PC folders, job boards, clipboard, social networking sites, blogs, internet communities, etc. You can then transfer the extracted resumes to the most popular resume databases / ATS. The resume inhaling software helps recruiters to build a talent database of qualified candidates in no time.

But  Glen Cathey , one of the leading sourcing experts in the industry, has a different opinion. Glen, in his recent article, says that posting jobs online is a passive strategy. He also says that posting jobs online doesn’t offer control over the candidate qualifications, attracts only active job seekers and posting jobs online is not social.
