Open the papers, browse through a magazine and you'd think there are no jobs left in America. Fears of outsourcing have blown our perception of the American job market out of proportion. Reality is far more reassuring. Every day companies come up with new human resource requirements? in fact, it wouldn't be too far wrong to say, many companies are desperate for people. At the same time, the job market is full of people desperate for newer and better paying opportunities.
The root of the problem lies in the inefficiencies of the current job market structure, specialty job sites and existing search technology.
Imagine this. Usually a recruiter needs to find candidates in a very short span of time. He either uses his contacts and calls other recruiters or goes online to popular sites and posts his requirement, hoping to hook the right person.
Typically any post will have several keywords attached to it, to aid the basic keyword search used by most sites. Unfortunately, this means the technology will attach any resume with the keyword in it, regardless of where and how it has been used.
So the results the hirer gets will run into pages and pages, showing candidates who may or may not be qualified. Whose resume gets read or finally picked up is just a matter of random clicks on random pages. Your resume is usually stuck somewhere in between.
Firstly, Odin does not match jobs to candidates based on keywords. Odin uses an advanced language processing mode, to actually 'read' both requirement and resumes, like a human being would. Odin can differentiate between primary and secondary skills, sift and pick relevant data and then match candidate to requirement, resulting in an effective match for both hirer and candidate.
Odin also ranks the results from most suited downwards and presents it in a single screen, easy to read automated dashboard. This user-friendly module ensures that the best candidates and the best jobs 'see' each other.
Unlike other job boards, odin Jobs does not restrict you to opportunities on our site alone. In fact, we aim at being your gateway to the entire online job market.
