ResumesChicago allows you to easily access online resumes of qualified candidates who are interested in your position’s salary and location, which allows employers to save time, lower costs, and increase interview quality, for less than the cost of accessing just one major vendor, and we do the work!.

    We are unfamiliar with online resume databases – How do they operate?
    Major online resumes vendors (Monster, Careerbuilder, Yahoo!Hotjobs) charge thousands of dollars to access their resume database. Each has millions of active resumes, but only a very small percentage of resumes will be of qualified candidates interested in your position's salary range and location, and locating & screening these resumes requires a significant investment in time & costs. Our service allows hiring managers and recruiters to save time & lower costs and to focus their time on interviewing & hiring the best employee.

    Firms like Monster, Yahoo!Hotjobs, and Careerbuilder normally charge between $200-400 for each job post, which require significant time & luck to be successful. With several thousand jobs posted on each site, having it seen and applied to by the best candidate is a big challenge. Job posts also require hours of screening the qualified from the unqualified, and required OFCCP record keeping for federal contractors. Our Job Post Service will cross post your job on dozens of leading career sites, and when combined with our Chicago Resume Search Service you receive access to a large majority of qualified & interested candidates quickly & at a low cost.

    For almost all positions our Job Post & Resume Search services will deliver many qualified & interested candidates, but there are situations where employers rely on a contingent search to hire the best possible candidate. For historically harder to fill positions requiring a specific technical and/or industry skillset, hiring the best possible employee normally requires a contingent search services. There is a decent chance that the best candidate will be found via job posts, resume search, or other recruiting efforts, but only by using a contingent search service will an employer be confident the best candidate was hired.

    Many top candidates do not respond to job posts or post their resume online. As no fee is due unless a contingency recruited candidate is hired & performs, it is a very logical strategy when hiring the best possible employee is the objective. Our Risk Free Search Service gives employers a FREE OPTION to hire the best candidate. Also candidates are much more open about their priorities & concerns with recruiters than they are with employers during the interview process - Our recruiters work with both the candidate & the employer to prevent & solve problems during the interview scheduling and job offer process. Please call Skip Steele at (312) 588-0800 x22 if you have any questions and/or would like to talk about your specific hiring challenge.
