We have unparalleled knowledge of the HR and Talent Management vendor community and can save you time and money in selection and implementation.

MrTed Ltd, the global leader of Talent Acquisition Solutions, today announced it is a founding launch partner of EuroCloud, Europe’s new cloud computing network of organizations created to further the SaaS revolution.

“With our strong belief in leveraging cloud computing to design enterprise-level talent acquisition solutions that are also consumer-friendly and easily personalized, we are excited to be involved in a partnership and community like EuroCloud to promote and encourage greater development and use of Software as a Service and Enterprise Cloud services and applications across Europe”, said Jerome Ternynck, CEO for MrTed.

EuroCloud was and is conceived by Pierre-José Billotte, President and Founder of the French ASP Forum, with a team of SaaS and cloud computing players from the UK, Denmark, Finland, Belgium, Netherlands, Luxembourg and Spain, to gather together leading SaaS vendors, enablers, integrators and industry experts to share best practices and expand business across the continent.

“The cloud model stands for global reach, ecosystem partnerships and integration, and my goal in developing EuroCloud is to encourage SaaS and cloud services and applications across Europe, and to advance their use,” Billotte said.

The leading research and advisory consulting firm Bersin & Associates said in its September, 2009, assessment1 of the state of the talent acquisition market that MrTedTalentLink Cloud 9 “brings the next generation Talent Acquisition Solution towards the market, (as it) will fully embrace the cloud computing technology and enhance its partnerships.”

“Organizations throughout Europe are rapidly moving toward cloud computing solutions to expand business, eliminate overly expensive and unfriendly software that isn’t personalized, doesn’t respond quickly enough to changing business demands and is simply outmoded,” Ternynck said. “We are eager to see organizations like EuroCloud propel greater adoption of models of cloud computing that truly represent the next generation.”

EuroCloud’s launch was supported by major companies in Europe and the United States that, like MrTed, do business in multiple international markets, and were selected to join EuroCloud based on the European scope of their business. In addition to MrTed, European Launch Promoters (ELP) include Amazon Web Services, McAfee, Microsoft Corp., Salesforce.com and others. For more information visit: www.eurocloud.org.

MrTed to Kick Off 2010 with Revolutionary New Platform…from MrTed

Advanced Cloud Architecture, Application Portability, and Redesigned User Interface Highlight MrTedTalentLink Version 9, Launching December 31

HRchitect includes MrTed and SmartRecruiters in our list of top Talent Acquisition Systems vendors that businesses should consider. Jerome Ternynck, CEO of MrTed appeared on the HRchitect WebMingle on May 22, 2009. If you are looking for a new Talent Management System, or any HR system, talk to HRchitect first. We have unparalleled knowledge of the HR and Talent Management vendor community and can save you time and money in selection and implementation.

MrTed today announced that the latest iteration of its flagship product – MrTedTalentLink v9 – will reach general availability on December 31, enabling users to kick-off the New Year in style with the world’s most advanced talent acquisition software platform.

For 10 years MrTed has been at the forefront of innovation in the cloud computing business, and MrTedTalentLink 9 continues the tradition. For the first time users can completely customize the MrTedTalentLink platform according to their unique needs and preferences – a significant achievement that has broad implications in terms of product usability and return on investment – and the architecture and user interface have been redesigned per the latest cloud computing protocols. The new platform reflects the desires of the user community with whom MrTed worked closely for three years to ensure the most flexible, enjoyable talent acquisition experience possible.

Introducing MrTedTalentLink 9

“This is an all-new breed of talent acquisition software that we believe users are absolutely going to love,” said Jerome Ternynck, CEO at MrTed. “We have gone to great lengths to make Cloud 9 a special product that fundamentally changes the way recruiters interact with their talent acquisition platform. The response from early adopters has been tremendously positive. I’m happy to say that MrTed has once again set the standard for talent acquisition software.”

Leading research and advisory consulting firm Bersin & Associates, in their September 2009 assessment of the state of the talent acquisition market said MrTedTalentLink Cloud 9 “brings the next generation Talent Acquisition Solution towards the market, (as it) will fully embrace the cloud computing technology and enhance its partnerships.”

Key Enhancements and Benefits

Advanced cloud computing technology – MrTedTalentLink 9’s new architecture is the result of over three years of research by MrTed. It features a configurable candidate database that can easily integrate data from any source, an independent business logic layer exposed through web services, and an on-demand user interface so recruiters can customize their own workspaces. This open architecture makes it fast and easy to connect with other talent management and HR applications, so users get the full benefit of cloud computing on their desktop.

A world of apps – MrTedTalentLink 9 presents business processes as portable application modules that users can turn on, turn off, or customize to create a truly personalized experience. Cloud 9 includes apps for all major business processes, including internal and external recruitment, outplacement, contingent workforce management, vendor management, candidate processing, time sheeting, offer management, on-boarding and more. Apps are portable and can be used with other systems and interfaces, while external applications developed by other vendors can be integrated inside the Cloud 9 workspace. By leveraging the power of MrTed apps, users can enjoy the benefits of a personalized platform that meets their individual needs and preferences.

Dynamic user interface – MrTedTalentLink 9 users are free to configure and rearrange apps in order to create a personalized workspace and navigation experience. The dynamic interactivity of the user interface allows apps to be resized, dragged, dropped and even layered. Even though the interface processes large amounts of data, Cloud 9’s asynchronous data retrieval keeps the presentation layer running quickly and smoothly—a result that can only be described as enjoyable for the user. Users spend most of their time in a dynamic and personalized workspace, rather than jumping from screen to screen or module to module. In this way MrTedTalentLink more closely resembles a favorite website than like an enterprise software program.

“We’ve all seen or experienced enterprise software that claims to be flexible and user friendly but is not,” said Robert Chwastek, MrTed’s VP Product Development. “What stands out about MrTedTalentLink 9 is the extent to which the product can be shaped to meet each user’s individual requirements. This truly is the most open enterprise software product with which I’ve seen, and that openness is key to increasing user adoption, user productivity and user enjoyment. “

MrTed Ltd., provider of the free and easy applicant tracking system (ATS) SmartRecruiters, today announced a partnership with First Advantage (NASDAQ: FADV), a global risk mitigation and business solutions provider. The partnership will focus on providing small-to-midsized businesses a more effective and cost-efficient means for managing applicants.

SmartRecruiters, one of the fastest-growing ATS on the market, is the only fully functional, 100-percent free SaaS ATS to connect users with recruitment-related services, which is what prompted First Advantage to team up with SmartRecruiters. “The partnership with SmartRecruiters will provide our clients access to a cost-effective recruiting solution and provide SmartRecruiters’ customers an array of integrated screening solutions that can be used to improve the quality of hire,” stated Paige Vesuvio, vice president of marketing for Employer Services at First Advantage.

The first services from First Advantage will be available to users of SmartRecruiters by the third quarter of 2009 and will include background checks and I-9 verification. First Advantage’s experience in employment pre-screening will help SmartRecruiters’ users improve screening quality and reduce compliance issues by preventing double entries, omissions and other human errors. With one click and one interface, users will find these services easy to use and intuitive.

By creating a partnership such as this, SmartRecruiters and First Advantage will not only provide small and midsized businesses with significant cost savings, but also, by adding services immediately within the ATS, recruiters and hiring managers should expect to save a tremendous amount of time. In addition to access to First Advantage’s services, SmartRecruiters users have direct posting access to some free posting sites, including SimplyHired, Indeed, GoogleBase and Recruit.net. Most recently, Yahoo!Hotjobs has been added to the growing list of available paid job boards.

“We are excited to continue executing on our strategy of providing free technology that is supported by pay-per-use services,” said Jerome Ternynck, CEO and co-founder, MrTed. “We are pleased that First Advantage understands and shares this vision and is willing to partner with us to achieve our common goals. First Advantage truly understands the value of SmartRecruiters.”

HRchitect includes MrTed in our list of top Talent Acquisition Systems vendors that businesses should consider. Jerome Ternynck, MrTed’s CEO will participate in the HRchitect WebMingle on May 22, 2009. If you are looking for a new Talent Management System, or any HR system, talk to HRchitect first. We have unparalleled knowledge of the HR and Talent Management vendor community and can save you time and money in selection and implementation.

MrTed, the leading global provider of Talent Acquisition Solutions, has teamed up with e3 unlimited, an HR specialist in generation trends to enhance their flagship talent acquisition solution, MrTedTalentLink.

The collaboration between MrTed and e3 unlimited is an ideal partnership, as new innovation and customer satisfaction are at the focal point of their day to day business. MrTed is continuously looking for new and unique ways to enhance their talent acquisition solutions and e3 unlimited’s expertise into the behaviour, wants and needs of the next generation will allow HR professionals to tap into the latest pools of top talent. To date, MrTedTalentLink already allows HR professionals to participate in social recruitment, by linking recruitment efforts with social networking sites. The goal through this new collaboration is to continue with this trend, bringing together the best of both worlds to produce a modern, state of the art solution for talent acquisition.

Bruce Morton, CEO of e3 unlimited explains, “Our mission is a simple one – to change the way the world works. For the first time ever, new hires are coming to work already prepared and experienced with the tools to do their work. They know how to self-organise, communicate, collaborate, manage projects, and provide feedback, etc. in ways that no previous entry-level workforce could come close to. They are the generation most prepared to leverage personal tools and focus on how well you are supporting their needs for personal productivity.”

“We are happy to have this opportunity to work together with e3 unlimited and our collaboration is the first step of many to better understand the Gen Y talent pool,” states Ralph Brasker, Head of Marketing for MrTed. “In joining forces, we can bring current, relevant content to our technology, which in turn can help our clients to develop and fulfill their recruitment efforts.”

E3 unlimited will be presenting at the HRPuzzle event, co-sponsored by MrTed, on the 28th of May 2009 at the Hotel New York, Rotterdam. During this event, e3 will enlighten the Dutch audience with their views on the Millennial Generation and how to approach, attract and recruit this next generation of talent.

As a part of the HRPuzzle (http://www.hrpuzzle.nl), MrTed is always on the lookout to join forces with companies in an effort to help organisations improve on their recruitment strategies.

HRchitect includes MrTed and SmartRecruiters in our list of top Talent Acquisition Systems vendors that businesses should consider. Jerome Ternynck, CEO of MrTed will participate in the HRchitect WebMingle on this Friday, May 22, 2009.

Arbita, a leading provider of recruitment marketing technology and media planning services, today announced a partnership with MrTed, who has recently launched SmartRecruiters, a free and easy applicant tracking system for corporate recruiters. The partnership will focus on offering customers of both companies free recruiting tools and training, providing a low-cost alternative to expensive enterprise talent management software and strategies.

Effective immediately, Arbita and SmartRecruiters will promote a collection of free software, trial software for sourcing and free recruiter development and content, including:

+ SmartRecruiters – a free applicant tracking system for corporate recruiters
+ Arbita OneSource – a trial version of the industry’s most advanced candidate sourcing platform
+ Recruiter and Sourcer Development – webinars and content on free and low-cost recruiting techniques from the industry-renowned Arbita ACES team

“Our partnership with SmartRecruiters is a logical strategy for addressing two major trends in recruitment,” said Don Ramer, founder and CEO, Arbita. “First of all, great software doesn’t have to be expensive. That’s why we offer free job posting software straight from our web site, and that’s why the North American market is ready for a free applicant tracking system like SmartRecruiters. Second, our community needs solutions right now for getting more done with fewer resources. This partnership provides our clients with tools and techniques they badly need to address the current recruiting reality.”

Arbita OnePost is available for free online at http://www.arbita.net/Offer/OneSource-Registration.cgi

“We are very pleased to be partnering with an organization of Arbita’s caliber,” said Jerome Ternynck, CEO and co-founder, MrTed. “Arbita’s commitment to the recruiting industry is legendary and I’m glad to say that we share similar values.
