247recruit Win Best Technical Innovation Award

Kingston-based online recruitment company 247recruit have this week been announced as the winners of the "Best Technical Innovation" award at the 2009 Onrec Awards. They won this national award within the niche jobs category for their innovative development of online job listings that incorporate video films. The short films allow candidates to view a video profile of the company whilst reading a job description. The online video can also be shared on facebook or other social networking sites at the click of a mouse.

247recruit Managing Director, Andrew Bird, explains what winning this national award means for his team:

"We are delighted to get recognition from the online recruitment industry for this innovation. Our team have worked really hard on integrating video within our job sites in such a way that they compliment job descriptions and enhance employer branding without distracting from the primary recruitment objectives of our clients. We only have a small team here but everyone has played their part in developing this innovation from concept to implementation. It has given us a real boost to be recognised by the industry for playing our part in taking online recruitment forward."

247recruit have over 600 corporate clients in the leisure, travel and hospitality industries including The O2 Arena, Center Parcs, Dhillon Hotels, First Choice, Goodwood Racecourse, LA Fitness, Manchester United, TUI Travel and Wembley Stadium.
