The recruitment industry has been going through enormous changes and challenges since the pandemic began. Hiring practices and tech development are having to adjust to dramatic shifts in what’s considered “normal” for talent acquisition. At Zoho Recruit, we’ve been striving to assist our customers on their hiring journey, not only through useful updates and new features but also through education and advice on how to face this fluctuating job market.

It’s only because of our customers sticking by us and giving us the opportunity to serve that we can make this announcement. Zoho Recruit has officially been listed under the “Top 50 Products for HR,” “Top 100 Software Products,” and “Top 50 Small Business Products” for 2021 by G2, the world’s largest tech marketplace.

G2 is a marketplace where businesses can discover, review, and manage the technology they need to reach their potential. Investors, product marketers, analysts, and technology scouts trust G2 because reviews are only from verified users. They also allow you to compare the best business software and services based on user ratings and social data.

The scope of the COVID-19 crisis caught us all by surprise, and the impact has been felt by organizations of all sizes across the globe. After gathering feedback, here are our top three features that have helped recruiters during this adversity and helped us achieve these accolades:

Candidate sourcing strategies

With the economy in a recession and many employees working remotely, recruiters have had to find affordable, digital ways to source candidates effectively. With Zoho Recruit, you can broadcast your job openings to millions of job seekers by publishing vacancies on popular job boards and displaying them on your company’s careers page. We’ve also enabled recruiters to screen applicants virtually with video interviewing platforms so they can connect with top talent from all over the world.

Recruitment automation at its best

Digitizing your hiring process helps you to quickly find, attract, assess, and hire candidates. Minimize manual work and use recruitment automation to reduce your cost per hire and time to fill. Elevate your talent pool management platform with Blueprints, and run background checks in a snap. You can also keep your teammates on the same page by creating a blueprint that prompts users to take the next steps necessary in the recruitment process.

Collaborative hiring is key

Whether you’re hiring for remote roles or you are a remote recruiter yourself, connecting applicants with the perfect job will remain a priority no matter where you are. Bring your entire recruitment team on board and collectively discuss your next great hire. They can even be involved in the initial stages of remote hiring. Review candidates together, add notes and comments and assess based on the skills required for the job.
