CareerSoft, a leading resume sourcing firm in Boulder, CO, offers an increasingly popular alternative to traditional
recruiting and employer-based personnel searches. With its Candidate Search service, the company enables
employers to focus on interviewing and hiring, instead of searching for qualified applicants. CareerSoft has
doubled revenues annually since 2004 and has expanded its own workforce nearly six-fold, despite rising
unemployment rates nationwide.
"Hiring is still strong in engineering, accounting and healthcare," says CareerSoft CEO Russ Curtis.
"Eighty-five percent of the positions we're currently sourcing are in these particular industries." According to
Curtis, educational requirements for CPAs and professional engineers have reduced the number of qualified
candidates, and the demand for healthcare professionals hasn't slowed at all.
Resume sourcing takes a unique approach to finding the right talent. With Candidate Search, CareerSoft
places ads for open positions on all of the major and industry specific job boards, searches resume databases and
employs a host of other strategic online resources, to identify the best candidates for each job. According to
Curtis, the company's month-long process normally results in a list of 20-40 qualified resumes, and creates
a large applicant pool from which companies can recruit and hire.
CareerSoft now works with more than 800 clients throughout the U.S. Curtis attributes the company's
success to his professional research staff, the extensive resources it uses to locate candidates, and its policy
of passing along the resumes of all qualified candidates. "Typically, recruiters pass along one or two potential
candidates. Our goal is to find all of the candidates who meet or exceed our clients' requirements."
CareerSoft has a solid working relationship with Monster.com, CareerBuilder, HotJobs and many other
niche job sites. "With CareerSoft Candidate Search, companies have the benefit of the best online resources, combined
with professional researchers who know where to find qualified candidates," says Curtis.
