PCRecruiter is a popular web-based solution for staffing, HR and recruiting. The app offers a strong suite of applicant tracking tools, including configurable interview process pipelines, built-in job board posting, an integrated email client as well as an innovative Microsoft Outlook embedded option, enterprise-class search capabilities, form letters,  activity tracking and scheduling, and custom reporting.

PCRecruiter also offers the Resume Inhaler to automatically convert inboxes full of resumes into complete database records, as well as a low-bandwith mobile access feature and integration with some phone systems. PCRecruiter scales to any organization size and is used by single-users as well as Fortune 500s. The app’s easily configured screens give administrators full control over data flow and terminology. Contact the vendor for a complete demonstration.

PCRecruiter is extremely flexible, with customizable fields, screen layouts, and naming conventions. Consequently, it can be used by a very broad range of operations – from solo recruiting offices to large contract placement agencies to Fortune 500 corporate sourcing departments.

In addition, the vendor, Main Sequence Technology Inc., itself is a differentiator. Privately held and run by the founders for over 15 years, the company has a personal approach to both clients and employees. While there is always overlap between product features in the recruiting/staffing space, Main Sequence has gotten consistent high marks from users for the way it treats them.

Scenario 1

Many recruiters spend a lot of their time in Microsoft Outlook. The PCRecruiter Portal for Microsoft Outlook embeds the entire recruitment CRM into the email program, so that the user doesn’t need to constantly switch between email and database screens.

Scenario 2

It is not uncommon for the same contact in a database to fit multiple roles – both as a contact for a client as well as a candidate for a new role. PCRecruiter’s relational database design allows any name to be treated as both a contact and a potential hire, without having to duplicate or re-create the record.

Scenario 3
Data entry can be a huge time waster for recruiting professionals. PCRecruiter’s contact information parsing technology means fast adding of new name records based on contact info in header data and social network profiles. In addition, the auto-logging of emails and phone calls is available with IMAP and VOIP integrated options.
