TheLadders Launches Mobile App to Personalize Recruiter Experience

NEW YORK, March 17, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- TheLadders today announced the launch of "TheLadders Recruiter," a native iOS mobile app that offers recruiters immediacy, simplification and convenient, on-the-go access to candidates in a fun and easy way. Developed with a feature-lean approach, "TheLadders Recruiter" removes the friction associated with searching for highly qualified candidates.  It is now available for free on the App Store^SM.

"Until now, the job industry has been notoriously full of noise, impersonal and frustrating for candidates and recruiters alike," said TheLadders CEO & Co-founder Alex Douzet. "We have built an app that rethinks the experience of connecting with qualified candidates entirely, making it easy for recruiters to find the right person for the right job."

"TheLadders Recruiter" eliminates the need for keyword searches, instead allowing recruiters to create roles within the app that they would like to fill. Upon providing a job title, salary, location and key skills, recruiters are given quick access to the most relevant candidates. The experience is highly personal and transportable, permitting recruiters to begin their search wherever they are and finish it in the office, with seamless integration to their online accounts. Additionally, candidates are refreshed every time the mobile app is opened, ensuring that recruiters are privy to the newest members.

"Our research shows that mobile users are 34 percent more likely to access TheLadders between 6 a.m. and 10 a.m., compared with the company's desktop users," said TheLadders' Job Search Expert, Amanda Augustine. "Mobile technology allows job seekers to turn what was once considered down time into valuable job-search time. Now that these behaviors are clearly changing, the market is primed for employers to successfully integrate mobile technology into their recruiting strategies or risk missing out on the country's best talent."

With the addition of "TheLadders Recruiter" to the company's mobile offering, TheLadders now offers the largest, entirely free, mobile career network for both candidates and recruiters.

"TheLadders Recruiter" is now available exclusively on the App Store.
