Standout Jobs

Yesterday, Standout Jobs was featured in the Financial Post:

Playing in the major leagues - Online tool helps smaller firms compete for talent. It’s a good overview of our product, why we built it and how it helps.

I was particularly pleased to see one of our clients - Apption - quoted in the story:

Sam Zaid, Apption Software chief operating officer said the response he has received from his company’s career portal has helped attract high-profile candidates that may have gone to a rival firm such as Google Inc. or Microsoft Corp.

“It would have taken 10 times more time to get a whole slew of features for our career site than if we would have done it ourselves,” he said. “I’d definitely recommend it to any small business that’s looking to brand itself on a major scale.”

Thanks to David George-Cosh for writing the story. I hope you’ll check it out here.

(And if you pick up a copy of the newspaper itself, you’ll be graced with not one … but two pictures of yours truly! I’m smiling in one, and I’m a bit more serious looking in the other.)
