Candidate Questions
Why should I use vCandidates.com when I can use a job search board?
Job search boards do help you to see how many opportunities are available. But they can be very overwhelming and do require a lot of search effort on your part. Even still, once you openly apply on a public search board, your resume is automatically available for all to see, even your employer.
vCandidates.com offers candidates the ability to be available for new career opportunities on a confidential, private platform. We are a sourcing tool for recruiters to connect with a talent pool of pre-screened candidates. And, unlike job boards, both our candidates and our recruiters are vetted and go through training with us before they are active on our platform. Moreover, our platform is private. Your profile will only be seen by recruiters with job openings. This prevents people from posting fake job positions to collect your information as does occur on the public job boards.
vCandidates.com also lets you provide more information about what types of jobs you are looking for, your work experiences and what motivates you as you advance in your career. We provide you with the job placement tools to be more competitive in a race between your competition along with tools such as a mobile app and our dual Employment Relationship Manager, which will help you manage the job search process and all communications between recruiters and you without having to create a separate, manual-based spreadsheet.

Recruiter Questions
Why do recruiters find vCandidates.com helpful?
vCandidates.com helps the individual and independent recruiting professional as well as the small to medium recruiting and staffing businesses with their search efforts by providing enterprise solutions to them at a fraction of the cost. Our all-in-one platform helps recruiters manage workflows, searches, communications and presentations to both candidates and clients. We are the only career platform that provides our recruiting subscribers with pre-screened talent that has been verified by our team of former HR and recruiting professionals who understand what is needed to present a viable job seeker to an employer.
As our candidates are well-prepped and serious about searching for a new career opportunity, your time efficiencies in working with them, preparing candidate presentations for your clients and handling administrative and calendar tasks will be greatly improved.
Also, vCandidates.com is a platform that employers (your clients) are unable to use to access candidates, thereby improving your competitive position in sourcing and presenting candidates.

Employer Questions
Why do employers find vCandidates.com helpful?
Shifts in workforces happen. Keeping your brand strong and viable is key to future talent attraction (not to mention customer attraction) as well as in helping those who are going through transitions. Our Employment Subscription Cards provide a low-cost solution when compared to other outplacement solutions if your company doesn’t have an off-boarding solution. It also creates a culture of respect and support for those leaving your firm and for those staying behind.
Offering these subscriptions also helps to communicate that their former coworkers are being taken care of.
