mBLAST to Provide Social Profiles for erecruit’s Enterprise Staffing Software

Today we are excited to announce erecruit’s partnership with mBLAST, which will deliver unrivaled social media intelligence to all users of erecruit’s enterprise staffing software. With this integration, erecruit users will gain valuable insights into the qualifications, history and expertise of the people behind the resumes they are reviewing as well as being alerted based upon candidates’ and contacts’ online activities, allowing immediate, thoughtful, warm follow up opportunities.

People post a wealth of information online everyday that could be used by Social Profiles for Staffingrecruiters and sales executives to improve the qualification of those they want to speak with most about potential jobs or sales opportunities. There are numerous tools everyone uses to monitor blogs, articles and social networks. That’s easy. The hard part is sorting through all the data you get back in order to intelligently identify who matters the most. That’s where mBLASTcomes in. mBLAST takes media monitoring, influence management and social media search and analytics to the next level by providing insight and identifying exactly who you need to target.

mBLAST’s dISTIL™ algorithms discover, analyze and rank the public content individuals create online – not only in popular social sites such as LinkedIn and Facebook, but across the entire web, including mainstream media, blogs, forums and discussion groups – to deliver detailed, scored profiles of a person’s comprehensive “web presence.”

Based on this information, erecruit customers can better identify true subject matter experts by understanding and measuring their impact on specific topics or communities of interest, as well as perform targeted sourcing of candidates and clients – whether or not they’re currently “in the market.” Additionally, the combination of erecruit and mBLAST provides a documented, repeatable process for the use of social media during screening, ensuring recruiters conform to regulatory and corporate guidelines.

“We are excited to be integrating social media and web presence history directly into erecruit,” said Judd Hoffman, Co-CEO of erecruit. “This important enhancement will give our users the opportunity to quickly learn much more about their candidates and client contacts through the creation of real-time social profiles that take LinkedIn, Twitter, Facebook, Google+ and hundreds of thousands of free web data feeds into account. erecruit users will now have the ability to understand their candidates and contacts in greater depth and to better evaluate who is most ripe for a warm recruiting or sales call.”

As the leading enterprise staffing software solution, erecruit is committed to unifying the entire staffing lifecycle into one enterprise-class platform, empowering mid- and large-sized staffing firms to deliver exceptional talent, value and service. With the integration of mBLAST, erecruit furthers the tool set its sales and recruiter users can leverage to find, qualify and close more business.
