Rapid Growth for Local recruitment site, 16th June 2005

NEW internet based jobsite 'MySheffieldJobs' has been going from strength to strength with over 500 local jobseekers registering with the unique portal within its first two weeks of operation.

The site is the most advanced of its type in the country, allowing local candidates to find jobs with businesses within the Sheffield region, through the use of cutting edge technology such as direct SMS text messaging.

With Sheffield businesses beginning to seriously exploit the Internet as a means of recruiting and its cost effective nature, the portal (www.mysheffieldjobs.co.uk) has generated a lot of interest from both recruitment agencies and local businesses.

One existing customer, James Caldow, the Recruitment Officer of Chubb Security gives this glowing reference "Within 30 minutes of posting the job I had a very suitable applicant and after a few days I had 9 quality responses. The vacancy was filled within a week! I constantly recruit and MySheffieldJobs has proved truly excellent value. I have advertised again and will continue to do so."

Ironically MySheffieldJobs have also used the site to advertise a vacancy of their own, as early growth has led to expansion of their workforce. Managing Director Glenn Chapman is pleased with early results, saying that "We already have 140 live vacancies on the site tailored especially for the people of South Yorkshire, from carers to telesales to project managers!"

Businesses who are curious as to how the site can help them fulfil their recruitment needs can contact 0800 1116016 and speak to a dedicated account manager. Job seekers are advised to visit the website, where they can register their CV free of charge and begin searching hundreds of vacancies 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
