eCareer
Holdings is a developer and marketer of branded niche career content sites. The
company’s goal is to provide effective job advertising platforms utilizing the
latest technologies, addressing the growing demand for skilled professionals in
specific sectors. eCareer opened the initial version of a site of this nature,
Openreq™ (www.openreq.com), on January 1, 2013.
Openreq,
an aggregator of human resources, staffing and recruiting professionals, is a
content-driven career community featuring a plethora of career-relevant news,
stories, videos and blog posts in what the company calls a “career-inspiring
format.” The purpose of the content is to keep job seekers informed about their
preferred industry, inspire them about their work, and offer information and
opportunities for career advancement.
As
with other job sites, job seekers using Openreq can create a profile, submit a
resume and receive job alerts and matches. Similarly, employers can post jobs
on Openreq and receive candidate matches and alerts. What sets Openreq apart
from other job sites is its cutting-edge job matching technology.
Last
month, eCareer re-launched Openreq to include superior technology and targeted
distribution powered by RealMatch. Now, employers who post jobs on Openreq’s
job board can receive “unprecedented outreach” to HR, staffing and recruiting
professionals in the Openreq community and on the TheJobNetwork™, the largest
recruitment ad network of job sites in North America. Openreq enables hiring
managers to automatically screen, grade and rank applicants, and returns
qualified passive job seeker matches in real-time from the site’s resume
database.
TheJobNetwork
reaches millions of active and passive job seekers each month. To maximize
qualified response, jobs posted on Openreq are automatically optimized,
distributed, and monitored as part of targeted ad campaigns. This results in
higher rankings in search results, search engines and paid job sites – thereby
increasing qualified response by an average 200%.
Real-Time
Job Matching technology instantly matches job seekers to open postings based on
their skill set, experience and preferences. This eliminates the need for
seekers spend time keyword searching and browsing through hundreds of
irrelevant job postings. Furthermore, since Openreq is part of TheJobNetwork,
job seekers have access to job matches from any of the thousands of network
sites.
eCareer’s
business strategy is to provide users free access to the site. Revenue is
generated through advertising, resume searches and a job board function. In a
recent 10k filing the company states that it previously “strategically delayed
sales efforts and initiated sales personnel layoffs in order to focus on the
completion of the re-launched Openreq site and enhancements.”
With
Openreq now firing on all cylinders, the company in its November 2014
shareholder update further explained its potential and strategy moving forward.
“It’s
with great pleasure to report that the new software has really been a
tremendous improvement and a leap in the right direction,” said Griffin Karr,
client delivery manager.
According
to the shareholder update, eCareer’s next step is building direct traffic to
Openreq and adding value to the site. eCareer anticipates doing this by
promoting the site via the company’s existing social network accounts and
thousands of followers; launching a major email blast campaign; performing
content marketing; and curating stories from reputable sources to create
hundreds of credible backlinks and improve search engine presence/ranking.
“An
important thing to note is that the above strategies are all functions we can
perform in-house with our existing staff without hiring outside marketing or
consulting firms and without incurring additional costs … the site and the
technology is working and gives us a lot of confidence that we have turned a
huge corner going forward with Openreq and we’re totally focused on ramping up
sales and revenue,” stated Joe Azzatta, CEO and founder of the company.
Azzatta
added that in Q1 2015, the company plans to bolster Openreq sales staff in Q1
2015; report Openreq, traffic, and revenue statistics; as well as launch
www.cardiology.com for the cardiology sector.
