ERE Recruiting Conference Spring 2015 – Simply

Hired, the largest independent job search engine with properties in

24 countries and 12 languages, and eHarmony today announced a strategic

partnership to forge new connections between job seekers and employers.

Through the partnership, Simply Hired is helping to drive the 2015

launch of the candidate experience of eHarmony’s highly anticipated

Elevated Careers solution by providing full access to a supply of 10

million job listings, updated daily. The end result: candidates are

empowered to discover highly rewarding jobs and career opportunities

while hiring organizations are able to maximize employee happiness,

increase worker productivity and lower attrition rates.

“We selected Simply Hired as our strategic partner based on its

abundance of jobs, first in class search technology and shared values

around helping job seekers and employers find the right fit,” said Dan

Erickson, General Manager, Elevated Careers by eHarmony. “eHarmony and

Simply Hired are completely aligned around helping job seekers and

companies improve a broken recruiting process. This partnership is an

important step to level the playing field for job seekers and change the

equation used by recruiters to evaluate candidates.”

“Simply Hired has spent 10 years building a platform to aggregate,

process and index job listings,” said Bill Jeffries, Senior Vice

President of Business Development at Simply Hired. “Our focus has always

been on quality and innovation for the benefit of both job seekers and

recruiters. The partnership with eHarmony extends relevant, high-quality

job listings into a new area of compatibility matching, bringing

together the best of aggregation and culture and personality analysis to

open up new opportunities in recruiting.”

Simply Hired’s industry-leading content aggregation and search

technology platform indexes millions of job listings in every occupation

from many online sources, including company career pages, job boards and

niche job websites. The company has developed proprietary algorithms to

determine which jobs to show to each user, optimizing for relevance and

quality to ensure that the right job opportunities are presented to the

right job seekers. Simply Hired has dedicated 10 years to creating this

vertical search technology and continually refines its algorithms with

more than 350 updates in the past year alone.

Now, through the partnership, Simply Hired will provide eHarmony with

access to this index to integrate job listings with the Elevated

technology. Job listings are matched with normalized company, industry

and locale based culture data gathered from online surveys and

registered Elevated candidates in order to create profiles that are used

to generate compatibility scores between jobs and candidates.

The Elevated solution provides automatic matches to users, as well as a

powerful search tool linked to a database of quality, relevant job

listings for candidates fueled by Simply Hired and a database of

candidates for employers. Compatibility is based on Competence (Skill

Fit); Values Culture (Culture Fit); and Personality (Personality Fit),

helping candidates discover jobs and careers that they will be happy

with and find rewarding while at the same time providing employers with

quality talent that truly fits their culture.
