Madgex announce the latest improvements to Brand Republic Jobs

Online, July 26, 2010 (Newswire.com) - Madgex is delighted to announce that Brand Republic Jobs has moved to the latest version of the specialist job board software from Madgex.

Brand Republic Jobs, from Haymarket Business Media, is the leading source marketing jobs, advertising jobs, media jobs and design jobs across the creative sectors, including marketing jobs in London and throughout the UK.

Brand Republic Jobs now incorporates Madgex's CV Search & Match software, designed to maximise sales and profitability. CV Search & Match maximises candidate acquisition rates by providing a range of fast and intuitive methods for jobseekers to upload their CV and profile. This data is automatically extracted and placed into a structured data format, saving jobseekers substantial effort, enhancing the site's conversion rates and ensuring the database is filled with high quality structured data.

CV Search & Match provides a comprehensive search and browse experience for recruiters, allowing them to find candidates using methods that suit their way of working. It also provides enough information about the jobseeker for the recruiter to make informed buying decisions. CV Search & Match provides recruiters with faceted navigation and powerful search tools, enabling them to more easily identify relevant jobseekers. Recruiters can search, sort and filter CVs using a wide range of attributes without having to sign-up or register on the site.

Attracting an average of over 67,000* jobseekers on a monthly basis, Brand Republic Jobs has also seen the number of jobseeker registrations increase by over 53%* in the last 12 months. The number of job applications has also increased by over 12%* across the same period.

Building on the existing success of Brand Republic Jobs, these changes will further improve and develop the user experience, for both jobseekers and recruiters alike, offering additional new benefits to both.

Brand Republic Jobs is the third of Haymarket Business Media's specialist job sites to move to this new platform and continues the ongoing programme, which will see all of Haymarket's sites migrating to this new version by the end of 2010.

David Griffith, Associate Online Publisher at Haymarket, commented 'The opportunities that the new platform offers Brand Republic Jobs and all of our other specialist job sites allows us to enhance our specialist recruitment business and continue to offer the best online recruitment and job-seeking experience. It also clearly demonstrates our continued investment in and development of our specialist online recruitment services'

Simon Conroy, CEO at Madgex, added 'We are delighted to work collaboratively with Haymarket Business Media to develop their online recruitment business. Our aim is to help jobseekers find the best jobs and recruiters to find the best candidates by delivering inspirational and innovative digital recruitment solutions. This is reflected in our development of the user experience, addition of new features, refinement of revenue opportunities that benefit Haymarket and help define their recruitment strategy'.
