Adding an Internal Job Board to iRecruit
iRecruit has several configuration options to meet your unique needs as an employer. One of the most popular options is the addition of an Internal Job Board which can be used exclusively for current employees who are looking to change roles within your organization. iRecruit publishes your jobs to your website, and sites such as Indeed.com, ZipRecruiter.com, however, if you need a way to make your jobs available to employees as well, iRecruit can help.

STATISTICS: 98% of text messages are opened and read versus just 20% for emails?

How to Find All Applications for a Single Applicant
This question was asked recently by a new iRecruit customer. There are actually several ways for you to find all the applications by a single applicant. Here’s a list of five ways you can find all applications for an individual applicant.
What’s the difference between Indeed Easy Apply and a Regular Indeed Job Post?
Arguably the largest and most popular job board in the world, Indeed.com allows employers to post jobs for free, or with pay-per-click sponsored advertising. Indeed also allows applicants to create accounts with which they can use to apply to any posted job.
