HubSpot Selects Jobvite to Power Social Recruiting

eRecruitment Technology Enables HubSpot to Leverage Social Networking and Referrals to Find New Hires

SAN FRANCISCO, CA - March 31, 2009

Jobvite, creator of next-generation recruitment solutions, today announced that HubSpot, an inbound marketing software company based in Cambridge, MA, has chosen Jobvite to power the company's active social recruiting efforts. Jobvite's easy and intuitive Web 2.0 platform enables HubSpot to leverage social networks to find the best candidates, reduce spending on job boards and manage a high volume of applicants.

Jobvite is the only recruitment application built to involve all employees in the hiring process and leverage their social networks to find quality candidates. Companies use the Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) application to reduce recruitment spending and increase the impact of existing resources.

Fast-growing HubSpot recruits marketing and technology experts who are often spotted and referred because of their online presence. Jobvite's deep integration with social networks, including LinkedIn, Facebook and Twitter, helps HubSpot find and reach passive candidates who are innovating in the industry and using technology valued by the company. Recruiters -- and any employee at HubSpot -- can target job opportunities to qualified people in their networks and spread the word virally. Employees at HubSpot also use Work With Us, Jobvite's Facebook application, to feed current job information to their contacts.

Executive quote

"As an innovator in Internet marketing, HubSpot knows the importance of targeting and engaging the right prospects for jobs," said Dan Finnigan, President and Chief Executive Officer of Jobvite. "Traditional applicant tracking systems just manage the hiring process, but they don't actually help companies find candidates. Jobvite provides an eRecruitment platform with API integration into the leading social networks, which helps HubSpot target and find the best talent most cost-effectively."

Customer quote

"Unlike the other recruiting solutions we evaluated, Jobvite understands how we work the web to find talent and it plugs into the networks we use on a daily basis, like Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn," said Rosanna Y. de la Cruz, Director of Talent Acquisition and Retention at HubSpot. "It's hard to impress our tech-savvy group, but everyone from employees to hiring managers to executives loves using Jobvite. Jobvite is a cool system in terms of usability -- very easy to get up and running."
