Orlando, FL (PRWEB) October 21, 2009
Bullhorn, the global leader in On Demand, front office staffing and recruiting software, today announced several strategic partnerships to advance the ecosystem for available solutions that complement Bullhorn's On Demand, integrated front office. Broadbean, M5, The Code Works and Virtual Software will make applications, fully integrated with Bullhorn, available by the end of Q4 2009. The solutions provide customers with the opportunity to achieve a stronger competitive advantage, while enjoying a richer user experience across several touch points that are critical to the everyday tasks of staffing and recruiting professionals - sourcing, telephony, vendor management and the back office. Bullhorn made its announcement at Staffing World 2009, held here from October 20 - 22, at the Orlando World Center Marriott. Bullhorn's booth number is 401.
"Bullhorn's customers consistently realize competitive advantage by living in Bullhorn every day, with a single, comprehensive integrated front office that maximizes their productivity from job order to placement," said Art Papas, CEO and co-founder of Bullhorn. "By advancing Bullhorn's ecosystem with new solutions that are fully integrated with our platform, our customers now have the capability to extend Bullhorn into every aspect of their staffing and recruiting process, from telephony to vendor management."
Telephony
The phone has always been a crucial tool for staffing and recruiting professionals. The integration between Bullhorn and M5 Networks now adds an invaluable dimension to managing client and candidate relationships. With the trio of voice, CRM applications and business intelligence unified and delivered as a service, staffing and recruiting professionals have instant access to history and current business status of clients and candidates for more productive calls. And for managers, service levels, staff and client activity can be reported in real-time for metrics and measurements that take the guesswork out of management decisions.
Jim Kanir, Chief Revenue Officer at M5 says, "The staffing and recruiting industry lives on the telephone and relies on building relationships for professional success. The partnership between M5 and Bullhorn means agents will have instant access to actionable intelligence to make the phone an even more potent business tool."
VMS
Bullhorn's partnership with The Code Works, and its new product VMS Express™ for Bullhorn, significantly reduces the time required to use vendor management systems (VMS) from Bullhorn's front office. VMS Express automates entering jobs into Bullhorn from multiple VMS systems, and minimizes the need for data entry of candidates into each VMS, while giving the recruiter complete control. VMS Express streamlines the VMS business process so that recruiters can spend their time on revenue-generating activities, not admin tasks.
Sourcing
Bullhorn is extending its capabilities to post jobs and track responses, globally, through its partnership with Broadbean. Through Broadbean, a Bullhorn client can click a "Post to Broadbean" button from a Bullhorn job record. The client will be re-directed to the Broadbean posting screen, where the form will already be populated with Bullhorn data, and the client can then select job boards.
Back Office
Bullhorn continues to expand its back office solutions, providing customers with the flexibility to choose the right back office to meet their needs. Virtual Software provides a unique set of web-based timesheet, billing and expense reporting solutions. Benefits include direct data transfer from Bullhorn, online entry and approval and one-touch exports of invoices, payroll, contractor payments, and more. Virtual Software's products are integrated with QuickBooks, Peachtree and nearly all payroll providers.
