E-recruitment can be defined as the use of technology to attract candidates to a job vacancy. An integrated e-recruitment website can completely reduce your company's reliance on expensive recruitment agents and job boards:

• The average cost of filling a vacancy in 2008 was ₤5,800
• Companies can expect to reduce their recruitment spend by at least 40 per cent in the first year
• 8/10 employers do not use e-recruitment methods to recruit staff
• 78% vacancies filled through Recruitment agencies

As companies feel the pinch from the credit crunch and worrying economic factors, the need to cut costs is paramount.

Using Web TV, mobile internet, and social network sites, an employer brand can reach global audiences as well as the very niche.
