TalentDrive Transforms the Landscape of Online Recruiting by Sourcing...



TalentDrive, the first company to provide the most comprehensive online http://www.talentdrive.com (resume sourcing and screening) solution, announced the availability of its services to recruiters and hiring managers worldwide.



It's the first company with the capability to pull http://www.talentdrive.com (resumes) from more than 40,000 Web-based locations - including niche job boards, local community Web sites, http://www.talentdrive.com (social networking) sites, university sites, etc, -- combined with experienced industry experts who provide objective, eyes-on review of resumes within sales, manufacturing and distribution, information technology, finance/accounting, and R&D/engineering.



With more than 35 million resumes dispersed over 40,000 Web-based locations, recruiters and hiring managers are spending more than 65% of their time searching the Web for qualified resumes. TalentDrive provides a new approach to online resume sourcing by applying Metcalfe's Law (which states that the value of a network grows by the square of the size of the network) and expanding a company's ability to search every Web-based location instead of a select few -- creating a larger "network" of resumes that will significantly increase the number of quality resumes.



"I was inspired to create a service like TalentDrive during my previous venture, CPRi, a marketing staffing firm," said Sean Bisceglia, CEO of TalentDrive and an experienced entrepreneur who sold CPRi to Aquent in 2007. "While at CPRi, I witnessed first hand the positives and negatives of http://www.talentdrive.com (online recruiting). We found that working with big job boards wasn't enough and expanded our reach to niche job boards, online social networks and community sites, but it wasn't easy to manage all the different Web-based locations, and I knew we weren't reaching all of them."



"According to the Society for Human Resources Professionals (SHRM) more than 90% of HR people are now using the Internet to recruit," he added. "TalentDrive provides a candidate sourcing solution that enables companies to leverage the Internet as a recruiting tool more efficiently and effectively, increasing a hiring manager's productivity by 90 percent."



The technology does not stop there. Qualified resumes are then pulled through a filter where the resumes are scored through a set of highly defined algorithms. From there U.S.-based industry experts personally review each resume, evaluating and selecting the right individuals who match specific standards and qualifications to provide a pipeline of the most qualified talent, ultimately resulting in more quality hires.



"I see us as the Orbitz of online resume sourcing," Bisceglia noted. "By connecting with every possible Web-based location for a resume posting and applying advanced search technology with expert eyes-on review, we ultimately provide the most qualified resumes from the largest pool of candidates."



TalentDrive is headquartered in Chicago and New York with plans to open three new offices in major cities within the next several months. Over the next two years, TalentDrive plans to expand globally, leveraging minority investor Aquent's 70 worldwide offices.
