JobsGroup.net, which is now the UK’s most popular independent online jobs network, won the award for Best Technical Innovation at the Onrec Awards 2007.

JobsGroup.net was also nominated for Innovative Online Marketing and Innovative Offline Marketing.

The award for Best Technical Innovation follows the launch of Artificial Intelligence Matching (AIM) in November 2006, developed in conjunction with Burning Glass Technologies of San Diego.

AIM dramatically improves the speed, accuracy and flexibility of online recruitment for both recruiters and jobseekers.

It is the latest in a series of award-wins for JobsGroup.net, including Best Specialist Website and Best Online Service.

We are particularly pleased to collect this award, as it required a substantial investment and 12 months of hard work behind the scenes to develop AIM for market.

The Best Technical Innovation Award recognises the potential of AIM to revolutionise niche online recruitment.

At a time when 82% of UK companies are experiencing recruitment difficulties, the means to quickly and accurately search a CV database of quality candidates has never been more important.

AIM benefits jobseekers too. It enables visitors to our sites to register in just a few moments as it automatically extracts relevant data from their CVs. And by making

it easier for recruiters to find you, you are more likely the land the job you’re looking for.

We’ve got some more exciting news to announce later this year. Thanks for using our services – and keep watching this space!
