TalkingCV - Tomorrow's Technology - Today

Unprecendented success of relaunched TalkingCV product results in company expansion.

London, United Kingdom, July 18, 2008 --(PR.com)-- TalkingCV Limited, a recruitment software developer based in London, has had such unprecedented success since the launch of TalkingCV that it has expanded the Sales team.

Derek Smith and Jacqueline Hill recently joined TalkingCV bringing with them valuable sales and marketing skills which the company is confident will help grow the business.

Unlike candidate video CVs that are available on YouTube or VisualCV, the latest version of TalkingCV is tailored specifically to the Recruiter giving them overall control of the initial round-one interview process and ensuring equal opportunity to all interviewees by sending each candidate a list of pre-set questions to answer. No different to say a lengthy, tiresome three or four-day recruitment seminar – except time is not wasted, travel costs completely disappear and the Recruiter is not left having to repeat the same questions a hundred times over.

They say, “Time is the most precious resource we have”. With hours wasted by managers and personnel staff interviewing inappropriate candidates Recruiters need to find a way to screen local, national or international applicants effectively and cost-efficiently. TalkingCV does this.

Using webcam technology, the TalkingCV software allows a 3-dimensional personal profile to be created by any candidate anywhere in the world, and at the same time Recruiters get an immediate impression of a candidate’s “soft skills” – invaluable where communication, presentation and language skills are a prerequisite of a vacancy.

There are no gimmicky presentations – questions are clear and precise, so it is up to the candidate to represent themselves to the best of their abilities. How much fairer can that be? The video presentation sits alongside the candidate’s CV providing the Recruiter with a “real-life” scenario as if they were physically in the same room as the candidate.

In today’s Credit Crunch Society, TalkingCV is certain to bring huge benefits for busy HR departments and Recruiters seeking ways to keep costs down in terms of greater efficiency and cost-effectiveness, while reducing the carbon footprint of all its users.

The TalkingCV package thereby provides decision makers with a clear picture of a candidate’s personality, communication skills and other vital attributes, regardless of a candidate’s location or the busy diary of the Recruiter. The software can be customised to suit the needs and visual presentation of the recruiter and therefore blends seamlessly into any current HR software that is already in use.

Peter Griffin, Managing Director of TalkingCV Limited, is amazed at how quickly the process has taken off. “With the increased availability of broadband both in the UK and throughout the world we have seen a tremendous take up of TalkingCV over the past 12 months. I believe during the coming year we will see the use of TalkingCV become truly global. Tomorrow’s technology is here today!”

To celebrate the new, improved version of TalkingCV, a free trial including 10 free TalkingCV recordings is now available, including free customisation with your own company logo.
