Work4 Releases First Social Job Sharing Solution That Empowers Recruiters with Full Automation, Customization, and Control
San Francisco (PRWEB) June 11, 2013
Today, Work4, the #1 Facebook Recruiting Solution, announces the release of its brand-new recruiter productivity solution, Social Job Sharing Recruiter. This powerful solution, which has already been adopted with great success by many of Work4’s Fortune 500 clients, empowers talent acquisition professionals to automatically share jobs across social networks, scale and promote specific hiring initiatives, engage a talent community, and spread a branded recruiting message, while putting control–and time–back into the recruiter’s hands.
With nearly all recruiters now using one or more social networks to find and engage talent, it becomes ever more imperative for employers to find cost-efficient and effective methods for streamlining the process of sharing jobs through social media. This is now mission critical, with 89% of today’s candidates active on social networks, and 81% of job seekers on Facebook expecting companies and brands to post job opportunities there.
Work4 takes efficiency and optimization of social job distribution to the next level by giving recruiters the ability to “set it and forget it,” while retaining complete control over the jobs and messaging shared with friends, followers, and connections through Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn.
“Our main goal is to facilitate a better connection between recruiters and candidates while saving employers time and resources,” said Work4 CEO Stéphane Le Viet. “By putting powerful automation tools for broadcasting jobs over social networks in recruiters’ hands and then streamlining how they control and customize messages and sharing, we’re able to help companies reach more of the right people with the right jobs in less time and with fewer wasted resources.”
On the macro level, Social Job Sharing Recruiter represents an HR management tool that can give employers global visibility into recruiters’ sharing activities, as well as insight into the performance of individual recruiters’ sharing campaigns and social media channels. On the micro level, this solution gives organizations’ individual recruiters control over the jobs they “own,” from scheduling specific jobs to customizing the messaging and choosing the frequency of posts on each social network.
Already, Work4’s premier clients, including many global Fortune 500 organizations, have seen tremendous success: the solution has already driven an average of 34% of job views and 30% of apply clicks on 10 beta customers’ Facebook Career Sites.
“Although our adventure with Work4 is a relatively young one, we couldn’t be happier with the services so far,” said National Bank of Canada’s Eric Belair, Senior Consultant Talent Attraction and Diversity. “Work4 enables us to easily and automatically distribute and share our various career opportunities across our selected social media platforms. This tool allows us to save time while reaching precisely the right candidates…Work4 has quickly become a key tool in our recruitment strategies.”
Social Job Sharing Recruiter is a revolutionary social recruiting tool because it provides recruiters with a single, easy-to-use platform for managing their job distribution across social networks, while eliminating the factors that often limit successful implementation of a social recruiting strategy, such as time, ease of adoption, or incompatibility with existing technology.
This solution integrates with existing talent management systems, so recruiters can continue using familiar tools without having to invest in or train on new technology. Jobs imported from an applicant tracking system are pushed to the chosen social networks with natural language and rotating text; however, recruiters have the ability to create custom, branded calls to action, which makes Social Job Sharing Recruiter a great tool for strengthening employer branding. Increased brand awareness, in turn, can help bring in more potential candidates, which has the potential to increase the number of completed job applications and speed the hiring process.
Social Job Sharing Recruiter can also be embedded in a corporate career site while working in tandem with other Work4 offerings, in order to bring candidates back to a custom branded Facebook Career Site and help recruiters monitor progress and campaign effectiveness with analytics.
Said Le Viet, “From simplifying the recruiter’s process to expanding the reach of job shares, to increasing job views and brand awareness, Social Job Sharing Recruiter promises to help recruiters tap into the power of social networks to better connect with the right candidates.”
For more information, download Work4‘s latest whitepaper, “The Science of Social Job Sharing: How to Effortlessly Tap Your Social Network for Referrals and Passive Candidates.”

Food And Beverage Exports Grew By 29% From January To March 2012, Versus The First Quarter Of 2011
Guatemala (PRWEB) July 27, 2012
The food and beverage sector has been characterized as one of the leaders in export growth. In the past two decades, has grown from U.S. $ 50 million to over $ 800 million, showing a constant increase the food industry, followed by the beverage industry.
Over the past 5 years, the food and beverage sector has had an average growth of 18%. This is the result of many efforts, especially to be aware of the importance of innovation, quality and added value that Guatemala has given to its agricultural production to position itself in international markets, specialized technical training to strengthen businesses and allow them to have a skilled labor has generated new products, new markets and especially more jobs in the industry, explained the President of Food Commission, Francisco José Menéndez.
The food industry consists of 6 sub-sectors integrated as follows: 20% of beverages, 20% of preserved food, 15% of baking, 10% of candies, 8% of dairy and 27% of other processed foods. Together generate about 15 thousand direct jobs, of which more than 3 thousand are women.
80% of jobs generated by the food sector are located in the Capital City, however, the dynamism of the sector is linked to the agricultural sector due to the entrepreneurship of SMEs giving added value to food and open the doors to new markets, said Menéndez.
Entrepreneurs, optimistic about sustained growth and opening up market opportunities in Central America, Mexico, Europe and U.S., have launched the goal of reaching the billion dollars in foreign sales. To achieve this, the sector has been working since 2011 on specific export guidelines to facilitate and adequate information in order to promote new export projects.
According to the director of the commission, these guides are aimed at companies that start in exports, which seek market diversification projects, which intend to export to Mexico and/or the United States on a sustained basis. However, the project comprises three more guides: Central America, Panama and a destination country to be defined in 2013.
Among others, to define these markets, we did the analysis of which represented growth accounted for Guatemalan companies from the food and beverages sector. Definitely, Mexico and the United States are our main markets, after the Central American region and therefore, we seek to strengthen the SMEs to seize them and invite entrepreneurs to know more fully the opportunities of these countries, declared Menéndez.
From finding the terminology used in International Trade, economic data, consumers, Trade Balance, whether from Mexico or the United States, in addition to the top 25 products imported and exported by each sector of these countries. This is the information business operators of food and beverage will find on the export guides mentioned.
What we want eventually is that companies count on different market guides to enable them to consider diversification, new opportunities and actions that promote the export of products of the sector and thus, we can provide to SMEs a greater opportunity for growth, because that results in more foreign earnings, more employment opportunities, more dynamism on the incorporation of all exporting sectors, as it has been for the last 30 years in AGEXPORT, concluded Menéndez.
