With the economy suffering, choosing applicant tracking systems and other HR software has become more important than ever. Not only are hiring managers more concerned than ever about the cost of such programs because of the a lack of funds, but they are finding themselves overwhelmed with large bundles of resumes. Since there are fewer jobs to be had, employers that are currently hiring are receiving a greater than usual number of applicants, which makes ats programs vital to finding the right candidate.

Knowing this, Precision Resources, a nationwide staffing firm, recently selected Kenexa’s applicant tracking solution to assist with their various offices. The firm deals mainly with finding workers for employers in the engineering, construction and maintenance industries. According to a recent press release, Precision decided upon Kenexa’s as its provider of recruiting software solutions with hopes that the choice will enable them to have a better understanding of the hiring practices across their organization.

“We have a long-standing relationship with Precision Rsources’ parent company, Zachary Holdings, Inc,” said Kenexa’s CEO Rudy Karsan. “Now that Precision is using the same reliable Kenexa system, the two organizations will be able to track hiring metrics across all business lines. With an integrated and standardized database of candidate information, the companies can make better decisions on how to keep attracting the very best talent in the industry.”

Users of Kenexa’s software-as-a-service applicant tracking system are able to take their company’s Web site and turn them into interactive career centers. At the same time the program helps to reduce the amount of money spent per hire, which is extremely important in a time of tighter budgets.

Introduction
ProBlogger, the brainchild of Darren Rowse, is a blog devoted to helping bloggers earn money. Rowse himself maintains more than a dozen blogs on various topics such as Digital Photography, the Athens Olympics, Camera Phones, Digital Photography, Spirituality, Pop Culture, and Life in Australia. In 2005 he helped launch www.b5media.com, a network of more than 150 blogs.

Pros
If you accept the premise that a Web site devoted to helping bloggers make money will be visited and revisited by bloggers worldwide, a job board devoted to helping bloggers find employment is a natural service for ProBlogger to provide. At $50 per posting for 30 days, the site is certainly affordable.

Cons
Before evaluating whether http://jobs.problogger.net/ is an effective site for recruiting bloggers, one must consider what a blogger is. Rowse himself defines a blogger as anyone who maintains a web journal in reverse chronological order. So, if you need to hire someone who maintains a web journal in reverse chronological order – without any concern as to what it is that they write about – this might be a site to consider. However, the fact that the site has only accumulated 25 listings over a two-month period would seem to indicate that a corporation looking to hire someone to write about, say Java, isn’t really interested in hiring someone who blogs about, say movies.

Summary
A blog devoted to bloggers is a winning idea, and listing job opportunities for bloggers is something to be commended. However, the notion of a job board that lists blog openings ever becoming a commercial success strikes this reviewer as far-fetched.
