Jobs2web's Recruiting Marketing Platform (RMP) consists of automated job alerts, powerful analytics, passive candidate capture, and applicant source tagging. Recruiters can leverage search engine optimization feature to view rankings of keywords from popular search engines. The platform's Web 2.0 approach also encompasses the use of multiple recruiting channels to find and capture candidates, including social networking websites such as LinkedIn, Facebook and Twitter. The application can be configured so it integrates seamlessly with existing technology, which means companies do not have to overhaul their existing career website or applicant tracking systems to make it work.
